According to the Maple Leafs bench boss Joseph Woll got back on the ice today and could return to full practice in the next couple of days. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/dalter/status/1845861099150676300'> </a></blockquote></div> This is a great sign for the Toronto Maple Leafs and their fans. When Joseph Woll was placed on injured reserve it was unknown exactly how long he would be out. Now it seems that he could return shortly after the mandated week on injured reserve. When healthy Joseph Woll is an above-average NHL goalie. Last season he played just 25 games but played well. Before that, Joseph Woll starred as the Maple Leafs 3rd goaltender splitting time between the <a href='https://www.marlies.ca' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>Toronto Marlies</a> and the NHL. If Joseph Woll can find a way to stay consistent and healthy then the Toronto Maple Leafs could be a scary team when the Stanley Cup Playoffs arrive. The Toronto Maple Leafs should be able to take another big step forward once Joseph Woll is back. With the Maple Leafs already playing well defensively without Joseph Woll they could reach incredible heights when he comes back. When it comes back all eyes will be on his workload to see how much the Toronto Maple Leafs put on him.
