NHL Power Rankings: Which Metro Teams Are Poised for a Shocking Leap This Season?
18. Toronto Maple Leafs, 13-11-3
Last week: 25
Sean: 18
Dom: 18
The Leafs were in a state of disarray before Joseph Woll returned to action, let down by Anthony Stolarz struggling to carry a bad defensive team. Toronto has cleaned things up of late and Woll has thrived behind that, once again looking like the team’s goalie of the future. Going into Thursday’s game against Carolina, Woll had a sterling .921 save percentage and has saved 0.73 goals above expected per game, up from 0.4 last year.
Of course, this year’s Leafs can’t seem to have nice things and Woll exited Thursday’s game after two periods. Bummer.
