Maple Leafs' Ilya Samsonov: Starting status murky

Samsonov, who was the first goalie off Monday, may not get the start against Boston after head coach Sheldon Keefe told reporters that he doesn't want Joseph Woll "sitting for too long," per Nick Barden of The Hockey News.

Samsonov got the nod against the Rangers on Saturday and has been playing two of every three games since early February, so that rotation would see him between the pipes versus the Bruins. Additionally, the 27-year-old netminder has been strong of late, going 10-2-0 with a 2.48 GAA and a .907 save percentage over his last 12 outings.
