Excellent in playoff primer Samsonov made 31 saves in a 2-1 overtime loss to Boston on Thursday.

Impact Brandon Carlo wired a wrist shot from the top of the left circle in the third period to force the game to overtime.

Takes loss in relief Samsonov allowed two goals on 16 shots in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Red Wings.

Impact Samsonov entered the game late in the first period following an injury to Matt Murray (concussion). Samsonov would allow a pair of goals to Dylan Larkin, one late in the first and another in the third, en route to the 5-2 loss. The 26-year-old netminder falls to 25-10-4 with a .915 save percentage this season. While there's been no update on Murray's status, it seems likely that Samsonov will be back between the pipes Tuesday against the Blue Jackets.

Fails to hold lead late Samsonov allowed three goals on 29 shots in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Panthers.

Impact Samsonov was one minute away from his 19th win in 23 games at Scotiabank Arena this season, but he instead fell to 18-2-3 on home ice after Sam Reinhart tied it up and Brandon Montour won it for the visitors in overtime. With Matt Murray struggling, Samsonov looks like the clear No. 1 option in Toronto's net heading into the playoffs, now that the Russian netminder has rejoined the team after being away for the birth of his child. They will likely split starts over the final eight regular-season games.

Florida is tied for the fifth-rank offensively with 3.45 goals per game.
