"“I think it was a bit of up and down, I felt like I had some stretches where I was feeling good about my game, and some stretches where things weren't necessarily going my way. At the end of the day, I felt, if I look at the season as a whole, I feel like maybe I've had some stuff left on the table.”"
"“I know what I'm capable of, what I've shown here before, and I don't think I properly lived up to what I'm capable of.”"
"Woll was previously non-committal, when asked if he'd join the United States for the World Championship, telling reporters he'd like to focus on the Maple Leafs during end-of-year media day on April 16. The 27-year-old posted a 15-6-7 record with a .899 save percentage in 39 appearances with the Maple Leafs last season. Toronto missed the playoffs for the first time in a decade, and Woll spoke candidly about his own performance on April 16."
"Ahead of the 2026-27 season, Woll enters as the Maple Leafs' No. 1 goaltender, while Anthony Stolarz, Dennis Hildeby and Artur Akhtyamov are all in the mix. Woll has been often lauded by opponents for his sense of calm and poise, and it'll be compelling to see how he performs on the world stage. He's no stranger to the USA Hockey program, as Woll won a gold medal during the 2017 World Juniors."
Woll previously gave a non-committal response about joining the United States for the World Championship, saying he wanted to focus on the Maple Leafs during end-of-year media day. He posted a 15-6-7 record with a .899 save percentage in 39 appearances for Toronto, which missed the playoffs for the first time in a decade. Woll described his season as inconsistent, with stretches going well and stretches not going his way, and said he felt he left some performance on the table. He added that he knows his capabilities and believes he did not fully meet them. Woll will play alongside Maple Leafs teammates Morgan Rielly and John Tavares on Team Canada, and he enters as Toronto’s No. 1 goaltender for 2026-27.
