knies off limits 5 ever huff


Knies has been really good.

Heck we went from 2nd round pick to WJC to Olympics at 19. Not many prospects can say they did that in their first year

He has size, power, incredible puck guarding skills, and can drive the net and create offensive chances off rebounds

I get why people go why not but man Knies in a year or two could be something to see. Not a perfect Hyman replacement but pretty close.

Like heres his most recent play

Yeah, I don’t see it either






Seguin misses the puck as the rebound is coming out and then "can openers" Allen to impede him.
He knew exactly what he was doing. Unfortunately the NHL doesn't know what they are doing.

i dont blame them but leafs are going to have a hard time making moves if their 1sts are off limits along with knies and for obvious reasons amirov


I think it was a question of is Hagel worth losing Knies and maybe another big prospect over. As for one Knies is looking like something Toronto could use within the next year or two. Big, strong, puck guarding machine who can skate, create offense, and just be a pain for defenders.

If it was a 1st + Robertson or something Toronto probs would have done it. But with Tampa's offer I dont think that would have been enough.

I got a feeling they will move their 1st but if a top prospect is involved the guy they want has to be really really good. Like Garland or something.

nhl writers are comical





Gallant - team metrics are awful outside of Hart quality goaltending: 34 points
Boudreau - brought a bottom 5 team to playoff contention: 3 points
Keefe - fastest leafs coach to 60 wins in history: 0 points

even Cassidy having no points is hilarious.

There's rumors that the Devils might move Ty smith, idk who they would trade him for but there's a good chance he breaks out next season. They'd be selling low.

yeah ive heard his name pop up on a few different podcasts, they shouldn't be looking to move him. Smith is having a brutal season, but it's not uncommon for defenseman to have sophomore slumps.

Maybe Lindy Ruff shouldn't be playing him with PK SUBBAN
Siegenthaler's breakout year led to Smith's slump imo

To be fair, Lehkonen probably takes a penalty there. Has nothing to do with Seguin interfering with Allen though.
It will happen again, and it will be called differently, as always.

I'm not even disappointed. I don't want the extra point.
I just want that recognized as interference.

Wait they still have that pick....

Well its probs going for Mayfield as imagine him next to Hedman

Plus he was a pain in their ass last playoffs

Get him out of the way before a team your going up against potentially goes and gets him.

Smith has also been bad when paired with Severson, I disagree that siegenthalers breakout led to smith's slump, like I said its common for defenseman to have a sophomore slump.

Dobson and Quinn Hughes both had sophomore slumps. Dobson spends most of his 5v5 TOI with Chara and still puts up great results. Smith will be fine next season.

I hate that trade for Tampa, but I also kinda like it…

So I guess maybe it’s fair?

Either way a huge win for the Poverty Blackhawks and their fans.

It looks like Travis dermott will be traded in the next few days, I wonder if that’s something lou will look into. Didn’t he draft Dermott?


Catching up on all that I missed, so someone else might have answered already, but no, Lou wasn't with the Leafs yet. Dubas and Hunter were Co-GMs at the time of that draft.

I think the Leafs are going to trade for Gio and then add a depth forward maybe Brassard or Blackwell

It's still wild to me why Hampus Lindholm has such a good reputation. The guy takes a ton of penalties and doesn't really do anything close to an elite level.
