Toronto Maple Leafs almost TRADED Matthew Knies to Montreal Canadiens? More fallout from deadline

Matthew Knies nearly traded to the Montreal Canadiens? The Toronto Maple Leafs’ front office drama heats up as Mike DiStefano and David Morassutti break down the shocking reports of trade negotiations that could have sent the promising power forward to a division rival. With the race for a crucial top-five draft pick intensifying, should Leafs management risk dealing away their future cornerstone, or is a “rebuild on the fly” on the horizon? The debate shifts to the lineup shuffle, Nick Robertson’s ice time, and how young talent like Easton Cowan and Jacob Quillan can seize their moment.

  1. I feel like that rumor has to be for clicks. As a Montreal fan I cannot fathom why the Leafs would ever consider moving Knies, especially to a divisional rival. Whether Toronto goes for a retool or rebuild, Knies should be the most untouchable name on that roster.
