Maple Leafs' Stolarz to Undergo Knee Surgery

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Anthony Stolarz will undergo knee surgery to remove a 'loose body' and is expected to miss four to six weeks, as confirmed by general manager Brad Treliving. Stolarz, who has been performing well with a 9-5-2 record and a .927 save percentage in his first season with the team, sustained the injury during a recent game. The injury has raised concerns about the team's goaltending depth, leading to discussions about recalling veteran Matt Murray or utilizing Dennis Hildeby. Treliving noted that they initially hoped the issue would resolve itself but determined surgery was necessary for Stolarz to regain full range of motion. The Leafs are set to face the Dallas Stars in their next game as they adjust to Stolarz's absence.
