""From top to bottom I think everyone was doing a great job," Knies said. "A lot of key blocks, good special teams. Yeah, I think everyone played well.""
""Yeah I just got a break, he lost a twig there," Knies said. "So I just tried to dip my shoulder, create some space, and find the back of the net.""
""We needed this," he said. "We needed energy and we're just gonna try to bring that home. I think we have a tendency to be flat at home, but we're gonna come Saturday and get some payback to these guys from Montreal.""
Toronto Maple Leafs finished a six-game road trip with a 5-1 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes, delivering a cohesive performance with effective special teams and key defensive blocks. Matthew Knies scored a physical second-period goal after capitalizing on a slight defensive mishap and described creating space to finish. The Leafs went 4-1-0 since their loss to Montreal and will return home to start a five-game homestand against the Montreal Canadiens. The team aims to carry the road-trip momentum and energy into Scotiabank Arena and address a tendency to be flat at home.
