Matthew Knies News
Toronto Maple Leafs left wing Matthew Knies bagged his 15th goal of the season as the team snuck past Pittsburgh 3-2 in overtime on Monday night. The 21-year-old has hit top gear near the end of the regular season, scoring in three of his last four appearances and averaging a point per game for the last seven games. Knies has had a couple of bad scoring slumps, but it's still been a decent rookie campaign for him, with 35 points collected in 75 games. He also leads all forwards on the Maple Leafs squad with 159 hits.
Toronto Maple Leafs left wing Matthew Knies sustained an undisclosed injury in Thursday's 4-1 loss to Boston. He was limited to six shifts and saw action for only 3:18. Knies' exit leaves him with a question mark for Saturday's matchup against Montreal. The 21-year-old has contributed 11 goals and 28 points in 61 games, with 86 shots on net and 127 hits. Tyler Bertuzzi and Calle Jarnkrok received opportunities with the top line after Knies' exit on Thursday. Pontus Holmberg will likely come into the lineup for Knies if he doesn't get better by Saturday.
Toronto Maple Leafs forward Matthew Knies is good to go for Thursday's contest against the New York Islanders after suffering a lower-body injury in practice on Wednesday. The rookie skated as part of the Maple Leafs' optional skate on Thursday morning and declared himself good to go afterward. Knies has been deployed in a key role on the Leafs' top line alongside Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner this season, registering eight goals and 15 points across 36 games. However, he has just one goal and two points across his last 10 games after snapping a five-game pointless drought with an assist in a 7-1 win over the San Jose Sharks his last time out. His fantasy value isn't where is needs to be to be considered off the waiver wire at this time.
Toronto Maple Leafs left wing Matthew Knies left Wednesday's practice early with an apparent lower-body injury. The young winger needed help to get off the ice, but Maple Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe hasn't ruled him out for Thursday's meeting with the Islanders. Knies hasn't been very prolific during his rookie year, posting 15 points (eight goals, seven assists) in 36 outings, but he's been working as a first-line winger, and Toronto would definitely miss his physicality. The 21-year-old is among the team leaders with 63 hits.
