Ahead of the must-win game five in Boston, many Maple Leafs fans have looked at a goaltending change as a necessity, with Jim Ralph of TSN 1050 Toronto echoing those sentiments.
Now, it appears that's exactly what the Maple Leafs will do, with Joseph Woll not taking his usual backup routine at the teams latest practice, with all signs pointing to a big change in net, according to Mark Masters.
In four starts this series, Ilya Samsonov has posted an .883 save percentage, so while it's not all his fault, the Leafs need to make a change, and with Sheldon Keefe's hand being potentially forced, they turn to the young goaltender to turn this series around.
