Rotowire
Stolarz suffered a groin strain when he was hurt April 8 versus Washington, Luke Fox of Sportsnet reports.
Stolarz missed the final four games of the season with the injury. He said Thursday that he will hit the rehab process hard once he is able to work out and that no surgery is necessary. Stolarz struggled all season, posting a 10-10-3 record with a 3.28 GAA and an .893 save percentage across 26 regular-season appearances in 2025-26, a far cry from 2024-25, when he led the NHL with a .926 save percentage and was third in GAA at 2.14. Stolarz should be in fine form at the start of training camp in September, barring any major setbacks.

Rotowire
Stolarz sustained a lower-body injury in Wednesday's game versus the Capitals and won't return to the contest.
Stolarz needed help off the ice after stretching out his left leg to make a save early in the first period. Joseph Woll took over in goal Wednesday and will end up playing nearly the whole game. The Maple Leafs will likely need to call up a goalie to start Thursday's road game versus the Islanders. Given the time of the season and the nature of Stolarz's injury, the team may opt to shut him down for the rest of the campaign.

Rotowire
Stolarz stopped 21 of 24 shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Sharks. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.
Stolarz's three-game winning streak came to an end after the Maple Leafs' offense came up quiet in this contest.

Maple Leafs' Anthony Stolarz: Excellent after missing game
Rotowire
Stolarz made 18 saves in a 4-2 win over Boston on Tuesday.
Stolarz earned the game's first star after missing his start Saturday after taking a puck to the throat during warmups and going to the hospital as a precaution. He has won his last two starts with just four goals allowed. Joseph Woll has lost five of his last six starts. Keep an eye on the Leafs overall. Stolarz should get at least half the starts based on his pedigree and performance, but the team may choose to sit the hot hand to drop further in the standings to get a top-five draft pick. That's where they need to land to keep this year's first-round pick, which was traded to the Bruins but is top-five protected.

Rotowire
Stolarz (throat) received his release from the hospital, and he will travel back to Toronto with his teammates, according to Zoe Pierce of NHL.com on Saturday.
Head coach Craig Berube did not have an update on Stolarz's condition. Stolarz was slated to start Saturday's game in Ottawa, but took a puck to the throat during the pregame warmups. He went to the hospital for precautionary imaging.

Maple Leafs' Anthony Stolarz: Fends off Wild
Rotowire
Stolarz allowed two goals on 38 shots in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Wild.
The Maple Leafs' three-goal second period was enough support for Stolarz to snap his five-game winless stretch. The 32-year-old had to work for it, but he looked sharp against a good opponent. He's up to 8-9-3 with a 3.34 GAA and an .894 save percentage over 22 appearances this season. The Maple Leafs haven't been able to establish a hot hand in net, so Stolarz and Joseph Woll will likely continue to split the playing time.

Maple Leafs' Anthony Stolarz: Can't recover from bad first frame
Rotowire

Maple Leafs' Anthony Stolarz: Can't steal win in shootout
Rotowire
Stolarz turned aside 44 shots in regulation and overtime but couldn't stop either shootout attempt he faced in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Devils.
The Maple Leafs had a few regulars sitting out ahead of potential trades, and they got outshot 47-27 on the night. Stolarz was still able to earn his team a point with some huge stops, but Paul Cotter and Jesper Bratt both beat him clean to his glove side in the shootout. Stolarz has gone 0-1-2 in four outings since the Olympic break thanks to erratic offensive support, but his 2.58 GAA and .925 save percentage during that time deserve a better record.
