Goaltender Anthony Stolarz hopes he and the Maple Leafs can work out a long-term extension before the 2025-26 season begins because he doesn’t want any distractions.

“Our ultimate goal is to win the Stanley Cup ,” Stolarz said. “Once the season starts, that’s all I want to focus on, that’s where I want my attention to be.

“I’ll let my agent (Allain Roy) and Tre (Leafs GM Brad Treliving) talk that out and hopefully we can get something done here soon.”

Stolarz made his comments Thursday, after the team’s first on-ice workouts at the Ford Performance Centre. Treliving had hinted Wednesday that the two sides were close. The news could drop any moment.

“We’re both really confident,” Anthony Stolarz said of the Leafs goalie tandem. Richard Lautens/Toronto Star The Star
