"I mean, it's hard to replace a guy like that. He's kind of a big player for us, with production, the way he played, special teams,"
"We did a good job of acquiring some great players, some big players that play strong, add a lot of value to our team, a lot of depth. And I think we have a lot of players right now that can play many roles and step in for occasions that we need them to. So, I'm really confident in our group."
"As soon as (Berube) stepped in last year, he kind of changed it up a little bit. I think we played a lot harder, a lot tougher, a lot more physical. I think we're still making our strides towards that really good championship culture,"
Matthew Knies expresses confidence in the Toronto Maple Leafs despite the loss of Mitch Marner. The team added Matias Maccelli for playmaking, Dakota Joshua for physicality, and acquired Nicolas Roy to strengthen the center position. Those moves increase roster depth and versatility, allowing multiple players to fill different roles. A potential first-line combination with Auston Matthews, Matthew Knies, and Max Domi could offset Marner's production. Coaching under Craig Berube has pushed the team toward harder, tougher, more physical hockey while progressing toward a championship-oriented culture.
