The Leafs will see how their No. 1 goalie is feeling on Saturday before making a decision on who will start against the Canadiens.

Woll practiced on Friday and his coach praised him for his work this season, where he holds a 14-1 record and 0.931 save percentage with the Marlies after returning from a pair of significant injuries last year.

The Leafs will face a Montreal team Saturday that is out of the playoff race but has bested them twice already this season. Toronto enters the weekend just a point up on third place Tampa Bay in the Atlantic Division. The club is in the midst of a stretch of five consecutive games against non-playoff teams, and is so far 1-1.

Woll is the fourth goalie the Leafs have used this season as Erik Källgren had a run of starts earlier in the year. Woll is likely to get at least one game this weekend, with the Leafs facing Montreal at home on Saturday before heading to Chicago to play the Blackhawks on Sunday.
