Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Anthony Stolarz could be traded soon, and as it turns out, there is a team that is looking to make a move for the netminder.

Anthony Stolarz and the Toronto Maple Leafs have been a good match so far, although with an abundance of goaltending talent, there are rumors that the netminder will be traded.
Dennis Hildeby was solid during his run with the Leafs. Meanwhile, Joseph Woll has been better than Stolarz this season, which has led to an interesting situation.
Having said that, the Leafs are thinking about making a move, and there are plenty of teams around the league that would love a goalie.
According to Nick Kypreos, many of those teams are beginning to reach out to prospective franchises. The Leafs have proven to be one of those teams fielding calls.

The Philadelphia Flyers like Stolarz

One team that would like the goaltender is the Philadelphia Flyers. They have struggled with goaltending, and Stolarz could help them quite a bit.
Anthony Stolarz’s performance against Edmonton was an eye-opener for teams across the league, including Philadelphia; the Leafs remain one of the few teams that will listen in on calls with their strong depth between the pipes
With that being said, Stolarz can certainly bring back a nice return for the Leafs, considering goaltending is at a premium these days.
The Leafs would have to think long and hard about trading the goaltender, especially if they can get some draft capital in return.
Of course, no one knows for sure what Brad Treliving is going to do here. He has some very big decisions to make going forward.
It should be very interesting to see how all of this plays out. For Maple Leafs fans, there is no denying that this is a particularly anxiety-inducing time.
