The Fourth Interval: Not a lot to report on contract talks between the Toronto Maple Leafs and pending RFA ahead Matthew Knies and pending UFA defenseman Jake McCabe in keeping with David Pagnotta.

Ryan Paton: “Lastly, the Maple Leafs, they’d talks with Matthew Knies and Jake McCabe on extensions to get them executed earlier than the tip of the season to return, or hopefully earlier than the beginning of subsequent season.
Two totally different conditions, although, Knies can turn out to be an RFA. McCabe can turn out to be a UFA. Any replace on these two?”

Pagnotta: “Yeah, going again to Pittsburgh and Patterson? No,
Nothing. Nothing impactful anyway, when it comes to something on the horizon, Nick Alberga truly was the primary report yesterday that nothing is admittedly rolling but with Knies and, and the Toronto Maple Leafs.
I can inform you similar scenario with Jake McCabe in Toronto. They’d some talks at camp that carried it, I imply, they began in July. Nothing but, nothing materials, nothing has materialized. Nothing has gained any traction thus far, with respect to Jake McCabe on an extension in Toronto.
Now look, the whole lot can change with one cellphone name, however that’s what must be one hell of a cellphone name proper now to get the ball rolling on a deal. They’re open to it, McCabe and his camp.
My understanding is that they’re completely open to it if Brad Treliving and the employees, wish to give them a name and say, ‘Hey, let’s attempt to get this executed.’ They’re keen to have these conversations proper now. However we’re just about on the similar level, similar with Knies, sort of on the similar level as they had been in the summertime to now, that is in all probability one thing that will get extended.

For Knies wouldn’t be shocked if one thing occurs within the low season. For McCabe, let’s see how he continues to carry out as a result of he’s had a hell of a superb begin.”
