Knies' 1st taste of the NHL was more reminiscent of Caufield's.
Caufield continued it though. Few do. We'll see, not saying he can't do it based on what I saw of him. Some concern about edge work I think but they'll train him up.
 
If you said Knies was overrated during the season, I think you kinda have to hope what we saw is just a fluke, yeah.

Otherwise you'd feel silly.
Lol. Save it for HF. I've proven time and again I don't care about being wrong. That doesn't mean I'm never right however.

I see a 20 goal middle six with an edge to him, just not in his skates. That makes him a very good pick at where you got him.

Ryan Poehling's first taste of the NHL resulted in a hat trick and a shootout game winner. Hasn't done jack squat since.
 
Poehling was a shit prospect that got a hat trick in his first game and did nothing since.

Knies was a good prospect that was arguably the leafs best forward in the NHL playoffs against two of the best teams in the NHL.

Minor difference here.
The fact that he was the Leafs best forward in the playoffs says more about the other forwards than it says about Knies

He was always a dogshit prospect, we tried to tell you. Meh to sub meh numbers in a dogshit conference.

But you'll always have his hatty in the 82nd game of the year that heroically lifted you from 9th all the way up to 9th.
 
Rookie debut (reg season + playoffs):


Caufield (20): 30gms, EV 12:48, 16gl/38pt pace --- PP 2:00, 5gl/8pt pace
Knies (20): 10gms, EV 12:19, 16gl/41pt pace --- PP 0:49, 0gl/0pt pace

Caufield would have to sit on Suzukis shoulders in a trench coat for that to be a legit comparison.
 
Short jokes. Qwaleetee
