Overview
- Head coach Craig Berube confirmed Joseph Woll will start against Chicago after missing four games with a lower‑body injury.
- Woll returns with a 2.44 goals‑against average and a .928 save percentage in eight appearances this season.
- Anthony Stolarz is not progressing from his upper‑body injury, will see another specialist, has no timetable to return, and the issue is not concussion‑related.
- Dennis Hildeby, who posted strong numbers in relief, slots in as the backup as Toronto resets its crease rotation.
- To activate Woll, Toronto returned Artur Akhtyamov to the AHL, while Chicago is without Connor Bedard on injured reserve and scratched Artyom Levshunov for arriving late to practice.
