Maple Leafs head coach Craig Berube has revealed some information on what kept Matthew Knies out of the lineup on Tuesday against the Blues.

Tavares staved off a 1-on-3 battle in overtime to get the puck to William Nylander to help the Leafs snap a five-game losing streak.

Toronto Maple Leafs forward Matthew Knies missed last night's game against the St. Louis Blues, and it led to a lot of speculation online.

It seemed like the Toronto Maple Leafs were about to hit rock bottom when the team announced an hour before their game against the St. Louis Blues that forward Matthew Knies would be out of the lineup with a lower-body injury.

Berube was Treliving's first coaching hire as Leafs' GM after he fired former bench boss Sheldon Keefe in May 2024. At the time Treliving felt Toronto needed a new voice and the Leafs responded well to Berube last season, finishing atop the Atlantic Division with 108 points.

Before puck drop, forward Matthew Knies was ruled out as a surprise late scratch with the Leafs providing little to no information about the reason why, simply labeling Knies as “day-to-day” and giving no additional information.

Craig Berube finally hit his breaking point at Monday morning's practice as the Maple Leafs struggle through a five-game losing streak.

Leafs head coach Craig Berube provides an update on the injured Chris Tanev, who has now been out of the lineup for 2 weeks since his scary incident in Philadelphia.
