Ilya Samsonov Set To Return Wednesday
2 years agoToronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov (personal) is expected to guard the crease Wednesday versus Florida. He last played on March 21 and has been unavailable for the last few games while waiting for the birth of his first child. The 26-year-old had a horrible time in his previous appearance against the Islanders, coughing up six goals on 28 shots, but it's been a good season overall for Samsonov, who boasts a 24-9-3 record. He has totaled three shutouts and owns a 2.46 goals-against average with a .914 save percentage. At home, Samsonov has gone 18-2-2, and the Panthers clearly need to produce a massive performance to beat Samsonov and the Maple Leafs Wednesday.
