Knies scored a goal on three shots and added three hits in Monday's 6-4 win over the Jets. Knies has scored four times over the last five games, and he has a goal in each of the last two contests. The 22-year-old winger has seized his opportunity on the top line, and he's also seeing 2:11 per game on the power play. He's at five tallies, one assist, 25 shots on net, 20 hits and a plus-2 rating through 10 outings in 2024-25.

Knies recorded an assist in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Rangers. Knies has earned a goal and an assist over his last three games, going plus-5 in that span. The 22-year-old doesn't hesitate to shoot -- he had 13 shots on net over his first four outings of the season before being held without a shot Saturday. Playing alongside Auston Matthews on the top line gives Knies upside, but fantasy managers may want to see him produce with some consistency before picking him up.

Knies scored his first goal of the season in a 4-2 win over Pittsburgh on Saturday. It was a pretty down-on-one-knee wrist shot that beat Joel Blomqvist clean early in the second frame to push the Leafs up 2-1. Knies could have a career year offensively while skating alongside Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner at even strength. Michael Bunting surpassed the 60-point plateau in 2021-22 while skating with Matthews, and Knies is more naturally talented than Bunts.

Knies produced an assist, two shots on goal, two hits and three blocked shots in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Bruins in Game 6. Knies has picked his offense up in recent games, earning all three of his postseason points over the last four contests. He's been in a top-six role since Auston Matthews (illness) exited Toronto's lineup. Knies has added 12 shots on net, 22 hits, nine blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through six playoff outings.

Knies scored the game-winning goal Tuesday in a 2-1 overtime victory over the Bruins in Game 5. The 21-year-old winger pounced on a rebound early in the first OT period after John Tavares had driven the Boston net and tried to jam home the puck. It was the second goal of the playoffs for Knies, but those represent his only two points in five games. If Auston Matthews (illness) isn't able to return for Thursday's Game 6, Knies may have to come up big again in order for the Leafs to avoid elimination again.
