And it looked like they were going to have to do the same thing for their next game as well. However, in a last-minute move, Leafs' general manager Kyle Dubas found a way to solve the goalie problem.
This morning, it was reported that the Leafs were going to have two amateur tryouts dressed as backup goalies for their next game.
But a tweet from Chris Johnston changed everything.
This means that the Leafs will have four goalies on their roster, with Joseph Woll likely to start and Matt Onuska serving as backup.
Let's not forget that the main goal here is to let Samsonov get some rest before the playoffs.
