Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Anthony Stolarz (upper body) has not been ruled out for Wednesday's Game 2 against the Florida Panthers. Stolarz took an elbow to the head in the series opener and was taken to a hospital on Monday night after he vomited on the bench. However, he was at Toronto's practice facility on Tuesday, with Maple Leafs head coach Craig Berube noting that Stolarz is "doing well." The Maple Leafs have seen Stolarz deliver top-notch performances in these playoffs, as he has posted a 4-2 record with a 2.19 goals-against average and a .901 save percentage. If he isn't available for Game 2, the spotlight will be on Joseph Woll, who allowed three goals on 20 shots in relief during Monday's 5-4 victory.

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Anthony Stolarz (upper body) was hospitalized on Monday after he was hurt in Game 1 against the Florida Panthers. The 31-year-old was elbowed in the head by Panthers forward Sam Bennett, exiting the action midway through the second frame. Stolarz, who saved eight of nine shots in the game, left Scotiabank Arena on a stretcher in the third period and was taken to a local hospital. The series continues on Wednesday night, and Stolarz should be considered questionable for Game 2. If he is unavailable, the Maple Leafs will turn to Joseph Woll again. He helped Toronto secure a 5-4 victory on Monday but allowed three goals on 20 shots, showing a bit of rust in his first appearance since April 17.

With the Maple Leafs, he was 21-8-3 this year and has logged a 4-2 record in the playoffs, allowing 2.21 goals with a .901 save percentage. Stolarz already saw the Panthers three times during the regular season and lost two of three starts against them. It's a difficult matchup for Stolarz and the Maple Leafs, as Florida cruised past Tampa Bay in the opening round, scoring an average of 3.80 goals per game.
