Anthony Stolarz's story
Growing up in New Jersey, Anthony Stolarz developed as a goalkeeper in an environment shaped by his size and early exposure to classic netminders. Tall as a teenager, he adapted a butterfly technique to suit his frame and spent his youth years in the New Jersey Devils organization, including two seasons at Jackson Memorial High School, before moving into junior hockey.
Stolarz moved through the junior ranks quickly: a season with the New Jersey Hitmen in the EmJHL led to a strong campaign with the Corpus Christi IceRays of the NAHL. His play drew NHL interest and the Philadelphia Flyers selected him 45th overall in the 2012 draft. He initially accepted a scholarship at the University of Nebraska Omaha but left after eight games to join the London Knights in the OHL, where the club also arranged for his post-secondary studies.
Turning pro with the Flyers organization in 2013, Stolarz spent considerable time in the AHL with the Lehigh Valley Phantoms before making his NHL debut in 2016, becoming the first goalie born in New Jersey to appear in an NHL game. His NHL path has been interrupted by injuries and moves: Philadelphia traded him to Edmonton in February 2019 for Cam Talbot, then he signed with the Anaheim Ducks as a free agent in July 2019 and spent much of that period with the San Diego Gulls. In July 2023 he joined the Florida Panthers, made his playoff debut in Game 4 of the 2024 Stanley Cup Final against Edmonton, and was part of the Panthers’ 2024 Stanley Cup-winning group as the backup to Sergei Bobrovsky.
Internationally, Stolarz represented the United States at the 2014 World Junior Championship and posted a shutout versus Germany, stopping all 15 shots. He was named to the U.S. roster at the 2021 IIHF World Championship but suffered an ankle injury early in his first start and did not return; Team USA went on to win bronze.
Stolarz’s game reads as a classic tall, butterfly-style goaltender: he relies on coverage and positioning to use his reach effectively, and has alternated extended AHL work with opportunistic NHL outings when openings or injuries created chances.
