With Joseph Woll back from his injury and playing well for a win in his first game back a few days ago, many thought he and Ilya Samsonov would trade starts for the remainder of the season. However, it appears that won't be the case, as Ilya Samsonov was the first goaltender off the ice today, indicating he will get the start for the second game in a row.
However, Keefe made a comment after practice which would indicate that the starter for tonight isn't clear.
With Woll so soon recovered from his injury, it would be troubling to see him sit for too long and not get his games in, especially since he played well in his return. However, Samsonov also had an incredible game against the New York Rangers, earning the Leafs a win.
The goaltending competition in Toronto is heating up, and we will see who earned the start tonight as the decision becomes clear.
