Ilya Samsonov Could Return In Game 4
2 years agoToronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov (undisclosed) could return to the crease for Game 4 with the team facing elimination against the Panthers in the Eastern Conference second-round series. Samsonov suffered an undisclosed injury on a collision with defenseman Luke Schenn that took place 37 seconds into the second period of Game 3, and he was replaced by backup goaltender Joseph Woll. After entering the game early in the second frame, Woll allowed three goals on 21 shots in the overtime loss on the road. Samsonov's return would be beneficial for a Maple Leafs team that is attempting to send the series back to Toronto for Game 5, as the 26-year-old starter has had some big moments during the playoff run.
