The Toronto Maple Leafs announced today they have signed goalie prospect Joseph Woll to a three-year entry-level contract.
The Leafs selected the phenomenally named Woll 62nd overall in the 2016 draft. He’s been plying his trade with Boston College for the past three seasons, posting gradually improving save percentages each year—.913, .915, and now .919. His save percentage ranks him sixth among Hockey East NCAA goalies. He also has appeared for the USA World Junior team in 2017 and 2018, although his 2018 run was not terrific (.886 in five games.)
Woll, like so many goalies these days, is big (6’4”) and rangy, and he’s generally considered to be agile.
