Maple Leafs Reveal Major Injury Update on Anthony Stolarz Entering Game 6
The Toronto Maple Leafs are just one game from being sent home for the season. Toronto will be looking to extend its second-round playoff series with the Florida Panthers in Game 6, but it'll have to win on the road to do so. The Maple Leafs held a 2-0 series lead but have dropped three straight games to the defending Stanley Cup champions. One reason for this is that Toronto has been without starting goalie Anthony Stolarz since Game 1. Advertisement Stolarz suffered a scary injury on a collision with Panthers center Sam Bennett. Backup Joseph Woll has taken over in the net for the Maple Leafs, and Toronto is likely to rely on him for the remainder of the series. Kristen Shilton of ESPN provided the latest update on Stolarz. "To get back to Toronto for a Game 7, the Leafs will have to win in Florida, but they likely won't have starting goaltender Anthony Stolarz," Shilton said. "He has been sidelined since Game 1 of the series with an undisclosed injury. He resumed skating over the weekend and was on the ice for a 30-minute workout on Thursday, but Berube doubted Stolarz would join the Leafs in Florida for Game 6."

The Caps, prepping for a physical playoff series, hope extra rest can help
The Washington Capitals were prepared to open their second-round Stanley Cup playoff series against the Carolina Hurricanes on Sunday.
