As you may have already seen earlier in the week, Matthew Knies had a pretty great profile written about him by The Athletic. It covered a lot of interesting information and insights into his thought process for his decision to not sign with Toronto last season, but some very strong indications he will sign this season. It also included some details about what Toronto’s development team are working on with him to help get him ready — not just for the NHL, but the playoffs.
His relationship with the Leafs remains strong.
