Maple Leafs HC gives a mixed review of Joseph Woll's performance in Game 3 OT loss 

Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Craig Berube gave a mixed review of goaltender Joseph Woll's performance in Game 3's 5-4 OT loss against the Florida Panthers.

The defeat trims the Leafs’ series lead to 2-1 in the second-round matchup.

The Maple Leafs got goals from John Tavares (two), Matthew Knies and Morgan Rielly. Joseph Woll stopped 32 shots in the contest.

Berube praised Woll's overall play but criticized one of the goals he allowed.

"I thought he was really good. I don’t love the fourth goal, but other than that, I thought he was solid," Berube said postgame.

(from 8:11 mark onwards)

Woll got the second start after normal starter Anthony Stolarz suffered an injury in Game 1. He has a 3.99 goals-against average and a .869 save percentage in three playoff appearances.

Berube added on the need for consistency in his team's performance.

"Just in terms of playing our game for the whole 60 minutes… We had a good first, I thought, and when we came out in the second, we had to be direct with what we do. In the third, we got back to playing our game," Berube said.

Berube further noted that they were applying pressure on the Panthers and doing a good job of getting the puck in deep to generate offense, but he stressed the need to keep playing the same way.

“In overtime, we had our opportunities. We had offensive zone time and were doing things. It is a bounce. That is what happens in overtime, a lot of the time," he added.

The Panthers got goals from Sam Reinhart, Aleksander Barkov, Carter Verhaeghe, Jonah Gadjovich and Brad Marchand. Sergei Bobrovsky had 27 saves.
