After tonight’s game… he may never move out of the Tavares house.

KneiseWhere the people who said he won't make an impact right away?3 OT's, 3 wins with Knies on the ice!
When the puck is going down to him on the cycle I'm actually confident he won't lose the puck. For a rookie it's incredible how good he is on the cycle.
That Bunting suspension was easily the best suspension of all time
7-1 with Knies so far
Crosby lived with Lemieux for a while and things worked out for them. Heck, sometimes I feel Knies is like a young Crosby when he has the puck along the boards.

Man were some posters so wrong about Knies impact in the NHL, let alone NHL playoffs.
A player with a big body, talent and some speed. Exactly the kind of player that the Leafs needed and its why anyone who suggested that Dubas should consider trading him away is INSANE and should give their heads a shake.
He kinda looks like a young Hyman, but with a few more moves and hopefully with just as much if not more offensive potential.

“And I took that personally “
- Knies, probably, after the other team scored in OT
On ice for all OT winners, primary assist on series clinching goal, saved a goal in 4th game that led to us winning the game. I can't say enough how huge he has been. Best rookie performance from the current roster.

Mofo has some Mojo.
Leafs win when he is on the ice.
Analytics have nothing on Mojo.
Sometimes swag just gets it done

We have to give huge huge props to Dubas on this! Dubas coulda traded this guy to get a player to try help so he can save his Job but he saw this kid was special.... he's legit been a horse for us! Dude can do everything.
I’m glad he’s doing well for you guys but I promise he’s only scratching the surface of what he’s capable of especially offensively.
agreed.
Knies has actually lived up to all the hype and then some.
He’s a core piece of this team going forward on a cheap contract.
Power forwards with soft hands and playmaking ability are like unicorns.
Best 2nd round pick the leafs have made in decades.
Great instincts, NHL ready body, clearly a player who's going to have a long and successful career in the league.
Power forwards take a long time to develop, and he's only 20. His offensive upside is going to take a few years to really unlock, but the sky is the limit. What a player!!!

He has been on the ice for 5 goals for and 2 against 5v5.
