Woll Heads to Flyers for Fresh Start

After ten years with the Toronto Maple Leafs, goalie Joseph Woll is traded to the Philadelphia Flyers in a deal that includes defenseman Simon Benoit for Samuel Ersson and Emil Andrae. Though Dan Vladar is likely to start, Woll is ready to compete and believes he can form a strong tandem with him, citing his successful 2024-25 season with Anthony Stolarz. Woll admits he was surprised and saddened to leave Toronto, but is thrilled for the chance to join a contender and help push for the Stanley Cup. Despite a less-than-stellar recent season, he points to his career highs and durability as proof he can be relied upon. Benoit, meanwhile, is eager to bring his physical game to Philly and reunite with Trevor Zegras and Jamie Drysdale. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
