Thread: Ranking Leafs Top Ten Prospects
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Byrr</b></div><div>It's nice to be high on Knies but he's not going to be an impact player in reality. Middle 6 forward who might compliment a top 6 line but he doesn't drive play. You'd have to be crazy to have him higher than 4th.</div></div>

“ If there’s a particular strength of Knies’ game that isn’t a mechanical skill, but a way to impact the game for his team’s favour, it’s his offensive transition game. He has the speed to blow by defenders, and good enough deception and maneuverability to get around teams that try to cut him off and box him in. Some of the best ways to have an impact on scoring chances, for and against, is to be <strong>good at driving offensive transitions</strong> or shutting down transition attempts against.”

Literally copied and paste from his EP Rinkside prospect report. He absolutely drives play and will be a force when he hits the NHL. Hands down the best offensive Leaf prospect they’ve drafted since 2016. He should absolutely be #1 here.

Good list 👌
