Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: Tough-luck loss to Preds
Rotowire
Woll made 27 saves on 31 shots in a 5-2 loss to Nashville on Saturday. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.
The Leafs got off to a hot start and went up 2-0 early, but the Predators rallied with five unanswered goals to claim the win. The loss snapped a three-game winning streak for Woll. Toronto remains tied with the Panthers for first place in the Atlantic Division with 87 points. Woll and Anthony Stolarz will probably continue to share time in the crease down the stretch, and Woll should be started by fantasy managers when it's his turn to play.

Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: Starting Saturday
Rotowire
Woll will protect the road goal versus the Predators on Saturday, per Maple Leaf Hotstove.
Woll is 4-1-0 over five games in March. While he has a 3.23 GAA and an .899 save percentage over that span, fantasy managers chasing wins won't mind his recent performance. He's got a good chance to keep things going in the right direction against a Nashville team that has gone 0-3-1 over the last four games, scoring just three times in that span.

Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: Stellar in win
Rotowire
Woll stopped 38 of 39 shots in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Avalanche.
Woll limited the damage to a Valeri Nichushkin power-play tally in the second period. This was Woll's fifth win in six starts, and it was the third time in that span he's been called on to make 30-plus saves. The 26-year-old netminder is up to 24-12-0 with a 2.70 GAA and a .908 save percentage across 36 appearances this season. He's started back-to-back games for the first time since Feb. 1 and 4, so Woll's recent strong play may have allowed him to claw back some work from Anthony Stolarz, who will likely get the nod Thursday on the road versus the Rangers.

Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: In goal Wednesday
Rotowire
Woll will get the starting nod at home versus the Avalanche on Wednesday, Luke Fox of Sportsnet reports.
Woll will take the first game of the Leafs' back-to-back, which likely means Anthony Stolarz will be between the pipes on the road versus the Rangers on Thursday. The 26-year-old Woll has started just five of Toronto's last 11 outings but is sporting a 4-1-0 record over that stretch. While Stolarz should continue to see the bulk of the workload, Woll could play himself into a larger share of the crease heading into the final weeks of the season.

Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: Earns second straight win
Rotowire
Woll stopped 24 of 26 shots in Monday's 6-2 win over Calgary.
Woll has been splitting the goaltending workload with Anthony Stolarz, appearing in four of the team's last eight games, and the 26-year-old Woll has posted a 3-1-0 record with a 3.90 GAA and an .870 save percentage over that stretch. The numbers don't tell the whole story, however, as those figures are inflated by the 5-2 loss to the Golden Knights on March 5, when he allowed three goals on seven shots, good for a 12.86 GAA. Woll has won four of his five appearances since the 4 Nations break.

Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: Chased early Wednesday
Rotowire
Woll allowed three goals on seven shots before he was replaced by Anthony Stolarz in the first period of Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
Woll won despite allowing five goals on 34 shots versus the Penguins on Sunday, but he wasn't allowed to play through his struggles a second time. The 26-year-old was stuck with the loss in the end after being responsible for Jack Eichel's power-play goal that led to his early exit. Woll is down to 21-12-0 with a 2.78 GAA and a .905 save percentage over 33 appearances this season. The Maple Leafs' next matchup is another tough one as they visit the Avalanche on Saturday.

Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: Victorious in high-scoring affair
Rotowire
Woll made 29 saves on 34 shots in Sunday's 6-5 overtime win over the Penguins.
In a matchup that did not feature a lot of strong defensive play, Woll helped his team squeak out a win in his first start since Feb. 23. The 26-year-old allowed four goals at even strength and one on the power play. Woll owns a 21-11-0 record, .907 save percentage and 2.70 GAA through 32 appearances this season. Sunday's game was the first half of a back-to-back for Toronto, so Anthony Stolarz will likely be between the home pipes versus San Jose on Monday.

Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: Set for backup duties
Rotowire
Woll (illness) is set to serve as backup to Anthony Stolarz in Friday's game versus the Rangers, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.
Woll was feeling under the weather earlier in the week, leaving his availability in doubt, but the Maple Leafs did not make a move for a goalie prior to Friday's game. Barring an injury to Stolarz, Woll is unlikely to play Friday, though he should be in the mix to start Sunday in Pittsburgh if his health continues to improve.

Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: Little trouble against Chicago
Rotowire
Woll stopped 25 of 27 shots in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.
He would have had a shutout if periods were 19 minutes long -- both of the Blackhawks' goals came in the final minute of a frame. Woll has been just fine lately, giving up either two or three goals in nine straight outings while winning six of them. He's now 20-11-0 with a 2.63 GAA and a .910 save percentage across 31 appearances this season. Woll and Anthony Stolarz figure to share the workload the rest of the way, though both have proven themselves capable as starters when the other has been out at times this season. The Maple Leafs visit the Bruins on Tuesday.

Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: Tough loss in low-scoring game
Rotowire
Woll made 23 saves in a 2-1 loss to Vancouver on Saturday.
Woll had won two straight heading into Saturday. He's 19-11-0 with a 2.65 GAA and a .909 save percentage through 30 appearances. Now that Anthony Stolarz has returned from a knee injury, Woll will settle into a more manageable workload. Woll is talented but unaccustomed to playing so many contests. He is a worthy fantasy play whenever he's in the blue paint.

Maple Leafs' Joseph Woll: Another solid outing
Rotowire
Woll made 23 saves in a 6-3 win over Calgary on Tuesday.
Woll played another strong game, especially with the Leafs racking up five minor penalties by the 5:06 mark of the second period. The Flames scored twice with the man advantage, but it's hard to fault him for those. Woll is one win from reaching 20 this season, and his 2.66 GAA and .909 save percentage are strong marks. He's already played a lot of hockey this season relative to his short NCAA seasons, so it will be good to get Anthony Stolarz (knee) back on the bench to keep the pairing as strong as possible.
