Maple Leafs Send Anthony Stolarz to Marlies on Conditioning Loan

The assignment provides live-game work after a prolonged nerve issue.

Overview

  • Toronto announced on Jan. 20 that Anthony Stolarz was loaned to the AHL’s Marlies for a short conditioning stint.
  • Head coach Craig Berube said Stolarz is getting close to returning but has no target date and still needs reps and conditioning.
  • Stolarz has been out since Nov. 11 with a nerve-related issue, and a recall after AHL action would end roughly a 34-game absence.
  • He posted a 6-5-1 record with a .884 save percentage and 3.51 goals-against average in 13 NHL games this season after a .926 mark last year.
  • His activation would likely push waiver-exempt Dennis Hildeby back to the AHL, as Toronto is unlikely to carry three goalies.
