Craig Berube on Joseph Woll leaving the game injured in Carolina: "Hopefully, it is not [serious], but I really liked the way Hildeby came in and handled it"

"It is a tough building to come into, I'll tell you that. They put a lot of stress on you with shot volume and things. We blocked some shots and battled. We scored on our chances when we got them."

"We'll see tomorrow. Lower-body right now. We'll see where he is at. Right now, I can't give you an answer. I really don't know. Hopefully, he is not [serious]. But I really liked the way Beast came in and handled it. This stuff happens. You just handle it. I told Beast he is going in. He did a great job for us. He has done a great job for us. I talked about it back in camp. He had a really good camp and came in prepared. It showed tonight, the preparation. It is not easy to come in there in that situation. I love it when he is ripping those pucks around the wall. Everything is hard. He battled in the net and made some good saves for us in the third period."

"He has been really good this whole trip for me. That line was really good tonight. They carried it, in my opinion. I thought they did a good job - not just on the scoresheet, but all around. I think Matthews had six blocks and did a great job killing penalties. But the whole team contributed. It was a team win. It is not an easy place to come into and win. This is a very good team that puts a lot of stress on you, as I talked about, but I thought we handled it well."

The Maple Leafs beat the Carolina Hurricanes 5-1, improving their record to 13-11-3. The victory was earned through disciplined defense, shot-blocking, and capitalizing on limited scoring chances. Joseph Woll exited before the third period with a lower-body concern and awaits further evaluation. Dennis Hildeby entered and delivered steady goaltending, showing strong preparation, puck-handling, and timely saves. Matthew Knies recorded a goal and an assist and the line contributed beyond the scoresheet. Auston Matthews provided significant defensive work with blocks and penalty killing. The team-wide effort overcame heavy shot volume in a difficult arena.
