Toronto Maple Leafs sign Joseph Woll to multi-year extension
After a promising showing in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Toronto Maple Leafs are locking up their goaltender of the future on a multi-year deal.
The Toronto Maple Leafs have looked for help in net for quite some time now, and while they didn't land a big fish in the early trades this off-season, they've now got a different plan. According to Insider Kevin Weekes, the team are now locking up 25-year old Joseph Woll on a multi-year deal.
**Breaking News** 🚨 📰
I'm told the @MapleLeafs are closing in on 3Yr Contract Extension (July 1st) for G Woll in the neighborhood between $ 3.5M - $4M AAV.
The deal is worth between $3.5M and $4M per season, and after a breakout performance in the playoffs that almost saw the Maple Leafs pull past the Bruins, he's being rewarded. Woll did play in just 25 games this past season before the post-season, tallying a solid 2.94 GAA and a .907 save percentage, and now, unless they make a blockbuster deal, he appears to be the No. 1 going forward.
