The Toronto Maple Leafs placed goaltender Anthony Stolarz on injured reserve Sunday.
Stolarz sustained a lower-body injury in the first period of the Maple Leafs’ 3-2 win to the Anaheim Ducks on Thursday. He sat out Toronto’s 4-2 loss to the Detroit Red Wings on Saturday and already had been ruled out of Sunday’s game against the Buffalo Sabres.
By virtue of Sunday’s move, Stolarz must sit out Toronto’s road game against the Dallas Stars on Wednesday. He is eligible to return on Friday against the Sabres.
The Maple Leafs will rely on goaltenders Joseph Woll and Dennis Hildeby in the absence of Stolarz.
Stolarz, 30, is 9-5-2 with a 2.15 goals-against average and .927 save percentage in 17 games (all starts) this season.
He is 52-36-11 with a 2.61 GAA and .916 SP in 125 career games (100 starts) with the Philadelphia Flyers, Edmonton Oilers, Anaheim Ducks, Florida Panthers and Maple Leafs.
