Proposal: A 1st and a 2nd for Matthew Knies and a 3rd in order to flip picks for help on D and PK.

[Scintillating10]

Can this be the outside the box idea that Treliving is looking for in order to bolster TOR for a playoff drive?

Habs might up Jets pick, AVS 2nd, Canucks 3rd for Knies?

 

[Space umpire]

The ball is in your court. Allow a 1st and 2nd and you get Knies and a 3rd.

Once those assets arrive you may push your best D and depth forward for a 1st and 2nd.

I highly doubt you are getting a 1st and a 2nd for Knies and a 3rd from anyone.
I read your teams board regularly. Most fans aren’t overly impressed. Leaf fans heavily overrated him when he was drafted. Saying he was a for sure top 6 wing … then he played behind Slaggert at the WJC. Slaggert projects as a 3rd-4th liner to most Hawk fans.

Realistically a team picking later in the round might offer their 1st because he is an NHLer. Teams picking higher won’t.

Arizona offers: ‘24 WSH 2nd, ‘24 EDM 3rd, ‘25 EDM 2nd, and ‘26 OTT 2nd.

Will add Dumba with 50% retention if desired (take out the 3rd)

No they wouldn’t

Markstom and Tanev for Knies maybe? Flames retain some.

Calgary gets core player to build around. Leafs get goalie and defenseman for playoff run.

This is not possible due to the Cap.

Try and at least be realistic with a proposal.

Leafs won't trade Knies lol. People need to understand he only played 50 hockey games last year and 38 the year before that. He's already played 47 this year

Hasn't he been pretty underwhelming this year too?

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

Hasn't he been pretty underwhelming this year too?

I mean he's a rookie that was put into a 1st line role right out of College because of Toronto's lack of depth

 

[Sparksrus3]

Knies + Liljgren + 1st

The package that ruled them all.

Reminder of not too many years ago , ok maybe 10, when it was Kulemin and a 3rd offered here for everyone in a Leafs trade. Then magically a Cody Franson “ sweetener “ would be added.

 

[Skolman]

Damn, Leafs fans really overrate Knies

 

[Phion Keneuf]

Knies + Liljgren + 1st

That’s a pretty damn good package

Wow, what a unique thing that only happens with the Toronto Maple Leafs.

 

[oceanchild]

You didn't complete the proposal.


To Toronto
1st round pick
2nd round pick

To Anaheim
Matthews Knies
3rd round pick

Wtf, you know how high that pick will be ?

 

[hockeyguy0022]

Flames should do a Tanev deal, for Knies, and a that first round pick they got from Van...

 

[Sparksrus3]

Wow, what a unique thing that only happens with the Toronto Maple Leafs.

yes you are correct. Those players were with the Leafs so no other team could make that offer.

 

[Justicebork]

This was true at the TDL last year and its still true today: the most competent person in/around the Toronto Maple Leaf organization is the image consultant for Matthew Knies.

 

[Leaf Fans]

Damn, Leafs fans really overrate Knies

No, I don't. I think he is a good player though.

 

[crowi]

No, I don't. I think he is a good player though.

Yes, you

 

[ThorNton Apologist]

Skip the middle man and do Knies + 1st for Chychrun?

 

[Leaf Fans]

Yes, you

No, as I said, not me.

Skip the middle man and do Knies + 1st for Chychrun?

No thanks.

 

[McVespa99]

Ahhh ok. I dont expect him to light the world on fire at this point. Most young players take some time

 

[toddkaz]

We arent this year is pray for a miracle playoff run

Its big 4 or bust. Very likely bust

We need cowan + minten to be contributers right away next year

Tavares next year final year then we can fix up the teams depth issues ideally

Sucks but thats life as a leaf fan for now

You want to put Cowan in the NHL next year? Yikes.
