The bulldozing is something we WISH Matthews would do man. It's def the bulldozing.
We just don't see that with Leaf players.

Hard to believe he is only 22 years old and won’t be 23 until next season.
Where will he be when he’s 25? Scary for the rest of the league because he is barely scratching the surface of his potential.

Yea Tkatchuks are emotional and pests... I wouldn't say they are mean or intimidating.
Knies is more level headed but more powerful. We've seen how many players take a run at him and take the worst of it?
Definitely lucky to have him. 4 goals in 7 games and has a knack for scoring big playoff goals.
Only problem with his play is that his price just keep going higher and higher.
Knies had 10 lbs on Matthews at the beginning of training camp.
47lbs on Marner at training camp.
6-3 227lbs and can skate. Hes a locomotive out there.

The guy is growing up to be the player Auston Matthews needed to evolve into.

You have to love the development of Matty Knies.
He is developing into a star powerforward type that excels in the playoffs.
He is more important to Leafs future than other UFA/RFA players like Marner and Tavares and should be top priority for Treliving to re-sign.
