Joseph Woll - Placed on injured reserve Woll (lower body) has been placed on injured reserve Wednesday, per the NHL media site.
Impact Woll's placement on IR appears to be a technical move, as he was still in contention to get the starting nod versus New Jersey on Thursday. If the 26-year-old netminder can't suit up Thursday either, it could mean Dennis Hildeby makes his NHL debut against the Devils.

Connor Dewar - Moves to LTIR Dewar (shoulder) was placed on long-term injured reserve Wednesday, PuckPedia reports.
Impact Dewar was placed on injured reserve Monday while he continues to recover from offseason shoulder surgery, and he'll be unavailable for several weeks to begin the regular season after being transferred to long-term injured reserve. The 25-year-old skated with his teammates last week, but it's not yet clear when he'll be in the mix to return to game action.

Dennis Hildeby - Up from minors Hildeby was summoned from AHL Toronto on Wednesday, per Mark Masters of TSN.
Impact Hildeby had a 2.41 GAA and a .913 save percentage across 41 regular-season games with the AHL's Marlies in 2023-24. He's projected to serve as the backup goaltender behind Anthony Stolarz for Wednesday's road contest against Montreal because Joseph Woll is dealing with lower-body tightness. Woll hasn't been ruled out for Thursday's game against New Jersey, so this might end up being a brief stint in the NHL for Hildeby.

Joseph Woll - Battling lower-body injury Woll is dealing with lower-body tightness and won't play on the road against Montreal on Wednesday, per David Alter of The Hockey News.
Impact Anthony Stolarz is set to start versus the Canadiens while Dennis Hildeby has been summoned from AHL Toronto and will serve as the backup. Woll might still be an option for Thursday's road game against New Jersey, according to Mark Masters of TSN. When healthy, the 26-year-old Woll will likely be the Maple Leafs' No. 1 goaltender this campaign. He had a 12-11-1 record, 2.93 GAA and .907 save percentage across 25 regular-season outings in 2023-24.

Anthony Stolarz - In goal Wednesday Stolarz will get the starting nod on the road against Montreal on Wednesday, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.
Impact Stolarz was originally expected to take the second game of the back-to-back versus New Jersey on Thursday but a lower-body injury to Joseph Woll has shuffled the Leafs' plans. The 30-year-old Stolarz has never reached the 30-game mark in his career but could play himself into a bigger share of the workload with some strong performances early on. As of now, Woll hasn't been ruled out for Thursday's matchup, though Dennis Hildeby was promoted from the minors.
