Goaltender Joseph Will is rejoining the team and will resume on-ice participation and other team activities as part of a return-to-play process, the Leafs announced Friday.
The 27-year-old took a leave of absence back on Sept. 23 to attend to a personal family matter.
The Leafs did not provide a timeline for when Woll would be ready for game action.
Woll was an important piece in Toronto’s crease last season, playing a career-high 42 games with a 27-14-1 record, a 2.73 goals-against average and a .909 save percentage.
Though he entered the post-season as the backup, Woll started six games for the Maple Leafs after Stolarz suffered a head injury in Game 1 of the second-round series against the Florida Panthers.
Through his seven playoff appearances, Woll picked up a 3-4 record with a 3.56 GAA and a .886 save percentage.
Originally selected by the Maple Leafs 62nd overall in the third round of the 2016 Draft, Woll has made 78 career appearances in the NHL and has a career 48-27-2 record with a 2.74 GAA and a .910 save percentage.
With Woll sidelined, Stolarz has been pressed into duty as the main starter and he has a 2-3-1 record with a 3.01 goals-against average and a .894 save percentage through six games.
