Who would you start in net for the Leafs in game 2?

[TMLegend]

I'd go Woll.

Samsonov gave up 4, and was bailed out on posts on several occasions. Not a good game #1 from him.

Rather just take my chances with woll even though he's been bad since getting injured. So over samsonov. Never wanna see this man again, no team will ever accomplish anything with him.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Woll. Sammy wasn't good....and if Woll is going to be our guy going forward it might as well be him now.

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Just go with Woll.

Every option is absolute shit though.

I hope Treliving is watching and realizing fast you can’t win with goalies and defense you went dumpster diving for. Time to move on from Marner and Tavares and create a real team; not a collection of garbage surrounded by 4 pieces of highly overpaid chokers.

 

[Strangle]

I would play Woll, I have a lot of faith in him

But I can’t say for sure that Sammy can’t do it, he didn’t have a great game last night, but Woll might need the off season to get his game back too.

What’s Murray looked like? Lol

 

[Racer88]

One of Boston’s goalies

 

[Whitewolfgang]

There was so much bad stuff happening at the same time, I had to turn down the volume during commercials and think hard on what I'd just seen to make sense of it all. Lots of things were downright bad. Goaltending was one.

I don't know that Woll is THE solution, but he is ONE of the solutions.

Maybe. I hope.

 

[Gary Nylund]

I'd go with Woll, I mean why not?

 

[HamiltonNHL]

I started Jones in game 1 and we won, so I’m playing him again

 

[Maple Leaf]

Unbelievable string of 4 string goalies whose idea was this?

 

[acrobaticgoalie]

Woll had a .915sv% in 4 playoff games last year which is fine and he plays a much calmer game but he hasn't found his groove since coming back.

I think I would go to Jones. Looking at his career playoff numbers he's mostly been outstanding. His 4 playoff tuns with SJ, he had a .923, .935, .928 and an .898. I know it's been a while since those years but that's a pretty darn solid track record in big games. Even last year with Seattle in 1 game he posted a shutout.

Keefe and Tre made the decision on Sammy 4 months sho on a free agent hoslie, Sammy, when they played social worker and everyone was lovey dovey, that Sammg was the answer. So 1 game you change?
They made the decision that Marner and Reilly were the answer, then why not bench them. Wtf did Reilly do?
Woll had his chance at the ring..he didn't.

 

[Evilhomer]

I'd go with Woll, I mean why not?

Seems likely they will make the change.

 

[Peasy]

Seeing 10 games of playoff Samsonov has been more than enough for me.

Dude is just way too chaotic. The completely opposite of a calming presence and what we were up against last night.

 

[DarkKnight]

His energy is just nervy, over compensating everywhere, just flying and flopping. I just dont see that bringing us to the promised land. He has been calm in there at times, so I don’t really get it, but he needed snorkelling equipment last night and he was fighting off every rebound.

Woll has more of a future here, rather give him a shot.

 

[Jacquestrapless]

It was always Woll for me. Even when he was struggling.

 

[BallardEra]

I'd go Woll.

Samsonov gave up 4, and was bailed out on posts on several occasions. Not a good game #1 from him.

I’d go Sammy for now. Woll can start at home in Game 3 if they lose tomorrow night.

Starting Woll tomorrow night pretty much destroys Sammy and if Woll looks bad, you’re in deep trouble as both goalies will be Marner “shambles in the brain” mode.

You have to go with Woll. I know he is not any better but what other choice do they have. If Keefe stays with Samsonov this will be a sweep with Boston scoring 5+ goals a game.

 

[trellaine201]

I goto the veteran Jones.

 

[kevsh]

I know I'm going against the trend here, but I say Samsonov.

Not that I have much faith in him but I instead look at the worst case: If Woll bombs in game 2 (which is entirely possible given he hasn't been great himself lately either), then what? Jones is not a realistic option.

Keefe himself didn't put the loss on Sammy so to turn around and switch now yells desperation and would rightly lead Samsonov to complain loudly. "If it wasn't my fault, why the **** are you pulling me?"

And if he loses game 2 - even if he's not really to blame, then come back home and put Woll in. It's desperation time so fully justified. Maybe at home the team rallies around him, wins game 3 and we're back in it.

 

[saffronleaf]

Where's the empty net option?

 

[Buds17]

They can go with Woll and hopefully not need to score five goals in order to win Game 2. If winning the game brings the expectation of Woll putting up a shutout like Samsonov would have had to though...

 

[Eternal Leaf]

Woll.

Pretty much choosing between rubbish goalies but maybe Woll can catch fire here.

 

[Stephen]

Post injury Woll is no better than Sammy. He’s a false hope.

I’d be interested in throwing a wild card Murray out there just for the spectacle of it.
