Ilya Samsonov was the first goalie off the ice at Leafs skate Wednesday.

Samsonov stopped 25 of 29 goals as he picked up his second straight loss his last time out in a 4-2 defeat to Los Angeles. The 25-year-old has adjusted well to his new surroundings in Toronto, amassing a 4-2-0 record to go alongside his .920 SV% and 2.35 GAA. He takes on Philadelphia who failed to score in their first game of their current back-to-back after losing 1-0 to the New York Rangers in overtime Tuesday.

Hill led the Golden Knights onto the ice for warmups.

Hill will get his second start of 2022-23 Thursday after stopping 31 of 33 shots in his Vegas debut in a 5-2 win over the Seattle Kraken last week. The netminder has backed up Logan Thompson for two of Vegas' three victories on the season and will be hoping to keep his .952 SV% in check when the Golden Knights host the Jets on Thursday. The Jets play their second game in as many nights after beating the Avalanche 4-3 in overtime last night.

Samsonov starts Thursday vs. the Stars.

Samsonov stopped 26 of 28 shots in the Maple Leafs win over the Senators last Saturday. Samsonov got the night off on Monday but he figures to be busy moving forward with Matt Murray on IR. Through two starts, Samsonov has gone 2-0-0 with a 2.00 GAA and .926 SV%. He draws a tough matchup on Thursday with the Stars in town. Dallas has won their first three games while averaging 4.3 goals for and 1.0 goals against per game.

Hill will start in Seattle on Saturday.

Adin Hill will get his first start as a member of the Vegas Golden Knights Saturday. The 26-year-old has enjoyed a decent career so far across five NHL seasons, winning 29 games while posting a career .908 SV% across 63 starts with San Jose and Arizona. He will look to start his Vegas career off on the right foot as they take on Seattle Saturday.

Samsonov will start against the Senators on Saturday.

Samsonov gets the start after Matt Murray left Saturdays practice early leaving the Maple Leaf's with only one goalie between on their active roster. The 25-year-old enjoyed a successful debut for Toronto Thursday, comfortably stopping 24 of 26 shots on way to a 3-2 victory over Washington. He will likely be the Leaf's workhorse if Murray’s injury turns out to be worse than originally expected.
