1. Who gives AF about Sandin...he's a Capital now.

2. It seems like there isn't much room for Knies on the roster this year. And, putting him in the AHL seems dumb to me. Too many knuckle draggers trying to injure. He's only a sophomore currently, so he has 2 more years of college. Shouldn't that be taken in to consideration some how? Burning a year of his ELC when he still has two years of college left, technically his whole ELC could be burned while he's still in college. Not sure if I'm right on this but if I am he shouldn't see the Leafs ice at all this year. No?

No, its the point ive always had.
Didnt think knies would get tossed into the fire of a leafs playoff run unless injuries required him to do so.
Not contrarian at, just a different opinion, which is ok.
Oh and others seem have a similar one.
But you do you.

I don’t know man. Santo was quoting Sandin but somehow you managed to twist that into an argument.

Yes, you shouldn't jump to conclusions.
- Fakepartofme

He literally said it with his own words. There is only one conclusion and its what Sandin said.

Stop arguing for the sake of arguing.

Burning a year could be good.

Less money on a longer term contract

And you can think that, would be silly to not give him a shot

Plus I am sure he is hungry for the opportunity...to not even give him a game would be silly

Also he is a NCAA prospect, he can go back to school for a few years and become a free agent. Just give the kid a shot ffs, he deserves it

I didnt twist anything, just said there could still be more to it as he could have signed a contract from anywhere.
Anywho, hes no longer a leaf, so all the best to him.

According to what I’ve been reading a lot of hockey people think Knies will not only make the team but actually be a difference maker.

Signing a bridge or long term deal would likely be at a much smaller AAV out of his sophomore season than his 3rd year.

Also if you don't sign him and play him this year he could very well go back go school next season...then next year this time he could just play one more season and sign wherever he wants.

If only he hadn't proposed road tolls. He's got to downplay that. Then he'll win in a landslide.

Don't live in Toronto anymore, so I don't really care - but when I did live there and Lastman won, I used to joke that Russell Oliver should run - same degree of idiotic familiarity.

Russell Oliver vs. Frank De Angelo - the mayoral debate could use circus clown music to make it even dumber.

He's actually proposing road tolls for only people who live outside of Toronto, but come into the city to work and/or play.

It's an idea that will have wild support of Torontonians.
