Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov earned a surprise start in Saturday's 2-1 Game 7 overtime loss against the Boston Bruins.
He made 29 saves on 31 shots in the series-ending defeat.
Joseph Woll was ruled out before puck drop due to an undisclosed injury he sustained in Game 6.
Martin Jones dressed as the backup with Woll unavailable.
Woll backstopped Toronto to victories in Games 5 and 6 - allowing only two combined goals - after relieving Samsonov in the third period of the Maple Leafs' Game 4 loss. Woll participated in Saturday's morning skate.
Following the loss, Samsonov divulged that he was notified he'd be the starter Friday afternoon, according to Chris Johnston of The Athletic.
