Speculation: Poll: Playoffs, Who's Your Goalie?

[DarkKnight]

Curious where Leafs nation stands on this question. As we sit here today I go Stolarz, nothing against Woll, lucky to have both, but he gets my vote. I'll leave it open for people to change their vote if they want.

 

[arso40]

Gotta do better than he’s done for me to have more confidence in stolie than woll we’ve got data to support the fact that woll can play on the big stage

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Stolarz by quite a bit for me

 

[arso40]

Stolarz by quite a bit for me

I’m not blind I can clearly see why in terms of the regular season but the playoffs is a different type of animal and we won’t know til we get there with stolie

 

[Al14]

I go with Stolarz until he really shits the bed or gets injured.

Woll just isn't the goalie I'd trust at the moment.

 

[Obo]

Stolarz if the playoffs started tomorrow but for me it's been back and forth all year and is still very close. I could see my vote changing again before the season ends.

 

[ULF_55]

We'll see down the stretch, but one looks to be struggling right now.

 

[Commander Clueless]

Stolarz has been better this year, but we've seen Woll's playoff performance hit new levels.

I think we should start Stolarz but I wouldn't be surprised to see Woll take the postseason reigns.

 

[123offtheglass]

Stolarz. In a great place with goaltending when you have Woll in your backpocket; good chance he plays too & plays well.

 

[Frostitute]

Start with Stollie the goalie and then we go from there. Im not opposed to keeping a rotation unless someone is playing phenomenally.

 

[LeafEgo]

It'd be shocking if Stolie wasn't in net game 1, but it won't take much to get swapped out. Feeling pretty good about the tandem.

 

[DarkKnight]

Woll nation asleep? Recency bias?

 

[PanniniClaus]

I am good with either guy.. I would prefer we try to out chance and outplay the other team rather than requiring above average goaltending. But we are where we are.

Colorado won with average stuff from Kuemper, Hawks won a cup with Niemi..

Yeah but those teams were deep, had plenty of warriors and were led by players that didn't tolerate failure. We meet none of those criteria.

First time we've had two guys who you can see running with it. Just need one to get hot.

 

[Mr_Fun]

Stolarz for me as of right now. That said, if they do go to Woll, I think he has what it takes to get the job gone, especially if he gets himself hot at the right time.

 

[HellasLEAF]

I'll say Stolarz right now like most. But I think Woll can win a series just the same.

 

[cyris]

I voted for both cause the poll let me lol

Stolie has the edge right now but it could definitely change over the next couple weeks

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Woll stepped up tonight but the consistency has been there lately

It's Stolarz for me.

 

[Puckstuff]

Why do they have to choose?

They have been working as an elite tandem rotating through out the whole year. Why would we stop that?

Go Stolarz game 1 and Woll game 2

 

[Jmo89]

I prefer Stolarz but Woll has proven he can be called on mod-series and put up good numbers.

 

[notbias]

Weird to see a board that only cares about playoff performances ignore that Woll has a .933 and 1.78 in the playoffs and judge him based on his regular season instead.

.964 and 0.86 last year.

Sounds good in theory, never seems to materialize come playoffs. If we lose two in row, I see it, but we’re hooped anyways at that point.

 

[stats1]

Stolarz and it’s actually not close imo. I love Woll and he’s our future but Stolarz is the veteran, he’s looked the most consistent all year.
