Toronto Maple Leafs: Joseph Woll Should Be 2023-24 Starting Goaltender
If the Toronto Maple Leafs want to maximize their salary-cap next season, they should name Joseph Woll their starting goaltender .
The 24-year-old only has 15 career starts with the Toronto Maple Leafs, but as shown by his play during in the playoffs, he’s ready to make the leap to starter.
If the Leafs did nothing with their goaltending next season and went with Matt Murray and Woll, they’d be tied up for roughly $5.4M in goaltending expenses next year. That’s a incredibly low price to pay for starting goaltending, but that could become even cheaper if the team decides to move on from Murray or buries his contract on LTIR.
