As the second-round playoff series featuring the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Florida Panthers transitions to Florida for upcoming games, it appears one Maple Leafs player may not join the team.

Head coach Craig Berube informed reporters on Thursday that goaltender Anthony Stolarz is questionable to make the trip to Fort Lauderdale.

Stolarz suffered an injury in Game 1 following a forearm hit to the head from Sam Bennett. He exited the game during the second period after appearing unwell on the bench during a stoppage in play.

Joseph Woll replaced Stolarz in Game 1 and subsequently started Game 2. Woll earned the victory in the second game, turning aside 25 of 28 shots in the Maple Leafs` 4-3 win.

Veteran netminder Matt Murray served as the backup goaltender for Woll in Game 2.

Toronto holds a 2-0 lead in the series. Game 3 is scheduled for Friday evening.
