Toronto Maple Leafs
2023 Fantasy Outlook
The top prospect in the Toronto system, Knies signed with the Leafs following the completion of his sophomore season (21 goals, 42 points in 40 games) at the University of Minnesota. He had one assist in three appearances for Toronto late in the year and played well in seven playoff games (one goal, four points) before a concussion ended his season. The Leafs added Tyler Bertuzzi and Max Domi in free agency this offseason, but the club is still expected to find a spot for Knies in their top-nine come training camp. Read Past Outlooks

Knies produced an assist, two shots on goal, two hits and three blocked shots in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Bruins in Game 6.
ANALYSIS
Knies has picked his offense up in recent games, earning all three of his postseason points over the last four contests. He's been in a top-six role since Auston Matthews (illness) exited Toronto's lineup. Knies has added 12 shots on net, 22 hits, nine blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through six playoff outings.

March 8, 2024
Knies, who's dealing with an undisclosed injury, may be assigned to AHL Toronto in a paper transaction Friday in order to provide the Maple Leafs with additional roster flexibility down the stretch, Chris Johnston of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Although Knies may technically be demoted to the minors Friday, it's safe to assume he'll be back with the big club ahead of Saturday's game versus Montreal. He's picked up 26 points and 127 hits through 61 games with the Leafs this year.
