"Woll has posted a 10-4-2 record in 17 appearances, with a .921 save percentage this season. Anthony Stolarz was a full participant in the Leafs' morning skate for the first time since sustaining an upper-body injury on November 11. Stolarz is currently on long-term injured reserve, while Dennis Hildeby operates as the backup. It's an encouraging sign for the Maple Leafs, while Woll and Hildeby have emerged as an upper-tier goaltending tandem this season."
"Berube did not make any amendments to his lines from Saturday's game. Auston Matthews will centre the first line, with Matthew Knies and Max Domi on the wings. Domi was celebrated for winning his fight against the much-larger Canucks defenceman Marcus Pettersson on Saturday. Easton Cowan, Nicolas Roy and Nick Robertson have found real chemistry on the third line, while Bobby McMann's speed, energy, and opportunism is blending in well on the fourth line, where Scott Laughton remains on fire in the faceoff dot."
"Monday's game poses a real test for the resurgent Maple Leafs, as the Avalanche are a genuine juggernaut, sporting a league-best 33-4-7 record. Maple Leafs' projected lines vs. Avalanche Matthew Knies-Auston Matthews-Max Domi Matias Maccelli-John Tavares-William Nylander Easton Cowan-Nicolas Roy-Nick Robertson Steven Lorentz-Scott Laughton-Bobby McMann Morgan Rielly-Brandon Carlo Jake McCabe-Oliver Ekman-Larsson Simon Benoit-Troy Stecher Joseph Woll (projected starter)"
Joseph Woll has posted a 10-4-2 record in 17 appearances with a .921 save percentage this season. Anthony Stolarz was a full participant in morning skate for the first time since sustaining an upper-body injury on November 11 and remains on long-term injured reserve while Dennis Hildeby serves as backup. Woll and Hildeby have emerged as an upper-tier goaltending tandem. Coach Craig Berube expects Stolarz to join the team for the road trip with no target return date. Lines remained unchanged with Auston Matthews centring Matthew Knies and Max Domi. Easton Cowan, Nicolas Roy and Nick Robertson show third-line chemistry. Scott Laughton anchors the fourth line and drives the penalty kill. Calle Jarnkrok, Matt Benning and Philippe Myers are projected scratches. The Maple Leafs face a 33-4-7 Avalanche in a stern test.
