Matthew Knies speaks on his upper-body injury
On Saturday night, the forward returned to the Maple Leafs lineup where he scored a goal in a win against the Edmonton Oilers.
Before the game, Knies spoke about his injury and how he actually suffered a shoulder injury that had nothing to do with his collision with the referee.
Knies also explained how he knew it wasn't serious but he also wanted to give himself some time to get back to 100 percent.
The forward has been a stud for the Maple Leafs this season as he has 19 goals and 33 points.
Knies has been living on the top line and for the most part, he fits in perfectly with guys like Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner.
The Leafs had been struggling offensively since Knies' injury and it should come as no surprise that the team would have an offensive explosion upon his return.
Hopefully, the Leafs are able to keep this up as their road trip continues.
