You're comparing Knies and Foerster's stats when they've played 20 games collectively? They are both players with second line upside and floors of middle-six players. Knies probably has a higher ceiling based on his play style but to use stats as the end all be all this early into both of their careers doesn't make any sense.

I dont feel like the leafs are looking to trade nylander right now. Defiantly not for future assets. Nylander is currently on fire and I doubt toronto want to downgrade the team

I wasn't the one that brought up statistics when evaluating prospects; Ritzy was in order to downgrade Foerester's value. I merely looked at what Knies has done in response (someone TOR values probably over TK) and replied with the only metrics we have when evaluating.
