Stolarz is in the starter's crease at Toronto's morning skate.

Stolarz has only played one of the last four games for the Maple Leafs but will likely return to the crease on Monday against the Chicago Blackhawks. The 30-year-old Stolarz has allowed three or more in three straight (1-2-0), including allowing four goals on 23 shots (.826 SV%) in his most recent outing, a 5-1 loss to the Florida Panthers. That said, he is still sporting an excellent 2.33 GAA and .921 SV% in 13 games this season. The Maple Leafs enter the action on Monday as enormous -399 home favorites against a Blackhawks club defeated 6-3 by the Columbus Blue Jackets last night.

The 22-year-old has yet to play an NHL game and is sporting a 2.21 GAA and .925 SV% in 14 games (9-4-1) with the Grand Rapids Griffins (AHL) this season.

Rifai has been recalled from the Toronto Marlies (AHL).

With Jani Hakanpaa (lower body) placed on Injured Reserve, the Maple Leafs have recalled Rifai from the Toronto Marlies (AHL). The 26-year-old Rafai has four point (2G / 2A) in 17 games with the Marlies this season. He made his NHL debut in 2023-24, playing two games with the Maple Leafs.

Hakanpaa (lower-body) has been placed on IR retroactive to November 16th.

Hakanpaa missed the first five weeks of the season due to a lower-body injury, played two games, and has missed the last four. He is eligible to return anytime, but his injury woes, dating back to last season with the Dallas Stars, are serious cause for concern.

Varlamov (lower-body) is day-to-day but will still travel to Montreal for the team's upcoming road trip.

The Islanders have recalled goalie Marcus Hodberg from Bridgeport (AHL) on an emergency basis with Varlamov sidelined due to a lower-body injury. If Varlamov misses any time, expect Ilya Sorokin to see the entire workload between the pipes for the Islanders.
