Toronto Maple Leafs News

The Flyers have played Anthony Stolarz (lower-body) on IR.

Stolarz had been playing O.K. with the Flyers but got hurt while starting for the third time in four days on Saturday. Stolarz has struggled with injuries throughout his young career and the most recent injury is expected to cost him 2-4 weeks. Carter Hart was recalled from Lehigh Valley (AHL) to take Stolarz spot on the roster.

Stolarz will start Friday in Edmonton.

Stolarz surrendered six goals on 41 shots in the Flyers overtime loss in Calgary on Wednesday. Stolarz has been given an extended run as the Flyers’ No.1 but has gone 2-1-2 with a 3.80 GAA and .889 SV% in five starts and two relief appearances. Stolarz has made some big saves but he hasn’t been great, so look elsewhere on Friday night.

Stolarz allowed four goals on 25 shots in the Flyers loss in Winnipeg on Sunday. Stolarz has had a strange six games with the Flyers, allowing 2-4-2-4-2-4 goals. If this trend continues, Stolarz will allow just two goals tonight in Calgary but I wouldn’t hold your breath. The Flames have won nine of their last 12 games (9-2-1) while averaging 4.1 goals for per game.

Stolarz will start Saturday in Buffalo.

Stolarz allowed four goals on 30 shots in the Flyers loss to the Blue Jackets on Thursday. This afternoon he will make his fourth straight start, having gone 1-2-0 while allowing a combined 10 goals on 86 shots (.884 SV%) in his first three starts. He faces a Sabres team that has lost four in a row (0-2-2) since having their 10-game winning streak snapped on November 29th.

Stolarz will start Thursday vs. the Blue Jackets.

Stolarz made 30 saves on 32 shots in the Flyers win in Pittsburgh last Saturday. Despite very limited action since the start for the 2017 season, Stolarz has performed pretty well since being promoted from Lehigh Valley (AHL). The former second-round pick has stopped 83 of the 91 shots (.912 SV%) that he has faced in three appearances. Tonight he gets a Columbus team that is 8-5-1 on the road.

Nylander has reportedly signed a six-year extension with the Maple Leafs worth $6.9M AAV.

With only a couple of minutes to spare, Nylander inked the much anticipated extension and could be back in the Maple Leafs lineup as soon as next week. Nylander adds to an already deep Maple Leafs top-9, where he figures to slot in next to Auston Matthews. A season ago, Nylander had 20 goals and 41 assists in 82 games.

William Nylander
Stolarz will start Saturday in Pittsburgh.

Stolarz allowed four goals on 24 shots in the Flyers loss to the Senators on Tuesday. The Flyers appeared to have the game well in-hand but blew a multi-goal lead in the third period. Stolarz has now given up six goals on 59 shots (.898 SV%) in two appearances so far this season. He is a risky option against a high-powered Penguins team on the road.

Anthony Stolarz
Matthews (shoulder) will return to the Maple Leafs lineup on Wednesday.

Matthews has missed the last 14 games with a shoulder injury but will be back tonight vs. the Sharks. With Matthews back, Frederik Gauthier will be a healthy scratch. In his first seven games, Matthews had 16 points (10G / 6A) but was held pointless in the next four games. Matthews will likely be back between Patrick Marleau and Kasperi Kapanen.

Auston Matthews
Stolarz will start Tuesday vs. the Senators.

Stolarz made 33 saves on 35 shots after replacing Calvin Pickard in the Flyers loss in Toronto on Saturday. It was a strong showing for the 24-year-old and likely earned himself a start tonight vs. Ottawa. Stolarz was 2-0-0 and stopped 64 of the 72 (.889 SV%) shots he faced in just three games with Lehigh Valley (AHL) before being called-up. He owns a 2.11 GAA and .931 SV% in limited NHL action.
