Just when everything was going right for the Toronto Maple Leafs, another injury pops up.After two periods of Thursday night’s game against the Carolina Hurricanes, and after stopping 22 of 23 shots, Joseph Woll wasn’t on the ice to begin the third period. The Maple Leafs said “lower body” was the reason why he didn’t come out for the final frame.The TSN broadcast, early in the third period, showed a clip of Woll stretching his left leg out after making a save.Dennis Hildeby came in for relief of Woll in the third period and stopped all nine shots he faced. The 24-year-old has one win and a .919 save percentage through six appearances this season.It’s unknown how serious the injury is, but Toronto could be in a bit of trouble if Woll is out for an extended period. Anthony Stolarz still hasn’t skated since sustaining an upper-body injury against the Boston Bruins on Nov. 11. With him not yet on the ice, it would suggest he’s not nearing a return to the crease anytime soon. That means Toronto could be rolling with Hildeby and, potentially, Toronto Marlies goaltender Artur Akhtyamov, if Woll’s injury is at all serious. Akhtyamov, through 12 AHL games this season, has seven wins and an .896 save percentage.Through eight appearances this season, Woll has three wins and a .927 save percentage.To be updated…Latest stories:Maple Leafs To Roll Out Same Lineup Vs.
