I spent most of the days leading up to the trade deadline terrified that Toronto Maple Leafs GM Kyle Dubas would ship off top prospect Matthew Knies for a one year rental.
Thankfully, this didn’t happen and Matthew Knies will be a Toronto Maple Leaf.
Eventually.
The 19-year-old forward had 32 points in 32 games in his freshman season and is coming into the Frozen Four hot with four goals in his last three games.

The great state of Minnesota and Head Coach Bob Motzko have done their part to help develop Knies into a better hockey player.
