Leafs reveal goaltending plan for upcoming season

Alongside Woll, who recently signed an extension, there's two-time Stanley Cup champion Matt Murray, who missed all of last season due to injury; and Anthony Stolarz, fresh off winning the silver chalice with the Florida Panthers. Stolarz played 27 games last season, backing up potential Sergei Bobrovsky.

With these three in the mix, it's going to be interesting to see who grabs the starting spot in net for the Leafs.

Second place isn't bad either, as the starter will need breaks throughout the 82 game season, and that's where the role of a solid backup enters the fray. It's why he automatically gets his name on the Stanley Cup if the squad are the fortunate ones to win it all. It's what Stolarz and Murray both experienced en route to their triumphs.

They know the importance of that roll better than anyone even though they both aim to back up Woll as the trusted leader between the pipes for the blue and white.
