Knies: Maple Leafs' camp set to be 'a little weird' without Mitch Marner
Mitch Marner's departure in a sign-and-trade deal leaves a gap as new players join, with Nick Knies expected to increase his contributions this season, coach Craig Berube said.
- This summer, Mitch Marner remains with the Maple Leafs after nine seasons in Toronto, posting a career-high 102 points in 2024-25 and being selected fourth overall in the 2015 draft.
- Following postseason frustration, fan vitriol increased after Toronto's playoff loss to the Florida Panthers, with some throwing jerseys at Scotiabank Arena, Knies said.
- Matthew Knies, 22-year-old power forward, signed a six-year, US$46.5-million extension and is expected to step up as the team reshapes its roster under coach Sheldon Keefe, adding Matias Maccelli and depth options Nicolas Roy and Dakota Joshua.
- Knies said Monday at the NHL/NHLPA player media tour that `It'll be a little weird just not seeing him in the locker room,` and he expects to take on a bigger role as the team invests more in him.
- After winning the Atlantic Division and beating the Ottawa Senators in six games, Matthew Knies embraces the intense scrutiny as part of the privilege of playing in Toronto.
