Leafs Goalie Anthony Stolarz Takes Matters Into His Own Hands, Flattens Sens' Ridly Greig

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Anthony Stolarz sent a clear message to the Ottawa Senators ahead of their first round Stanley Cup Playoffs series by posting a shutout in his final game of the regular season.

Now, he's sending another message on the ice as he let the Sens forwardRidly Greig know he wasn't taking any of his nonsense in Game 2 of their series.

Greig had been in Stolarz's face as much as possible leading up to this incident where Stolarz gave Greig a few shots to the back and legs with his stick before catching him with a big shoulder check a moment after.

Both participants would end up with penalties on the play, as the official game summary shows Stolarz getting two for interference, while Grieg was handed a roughing call.

In between periods, former NHL goaltender Kelly Hrudey explained that Stolarz knew exactly what he was doing, recognizing that Greig had taken a run at him in Game 1.

Stolarz has already accomplished a feat not done by a Maple Leafs goaltender since legend Felix Potvin by landing in the top three in both goals against average (2.14) and save percentage (.926) in the regular season.

So far, he has looked very good as he attempts to be the first Leafs goaltender in decades to take the team on a deep playoff run.
