Joseph Woll appears to be to starter for Game 5 in Boston
With Toronto Maple Leafs starting goalie Ilya Samsonov struggling heavily in the first four games, it seem Joseph Woll is set to start game 5 against the Boston Bruins on Tuesday night.
Though Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe would neither confirm nor deny the rumours that Woll was taking over, his comments surely suggest that there will be a change in the crease.
"Special teams & goaltending are two areas that we have to be better in & they're connected in lots of ways"

Keefe also talked about how the Bruins goaltending tandem was getting key saves at opportune times, and that this was a big reason that the Bruins hold a 3-1 series advantage.
Jim Ralph stated on TSN 1050 radio that the Leafs should seriously consider making a change in nets, as he believes that Woll can «come up big in big moments»
Sheldon Keefe stated that he would reveal his starting goalie on Tuesday before the game, so all Leafs fans can do now is wait with baited breath as their season hangs in the balance in a game 5 showdown in Boston.
