[Marie/Mirtle] Mirtle on Knies: “He loves playing in TOR, loves playing w/ Auston Matthews and being a Leaf and the attention that’s on him.” Mirtle adds that Knies could have played hardball, waiting until July 1 to sign an offer sheet, but didn’t want to do that. He wants to be a Leaf.

[Dreger] No trade call, nothing signed. More work ahead in terms of the potential of Mitch Marner being traded to Vegas and what the return might be. I don’t expect anything will get done tonight.

[Matheson] After the win, Ernie Clement spoke about how much this Blue Jays team means to him and how grateful he is for the opportunity: “I just want what’s best for this team, I truly care about that. That’s what the really good teams and the great teams do. They play for each other.”
[Matheson] Ernie Clement has reached base 5x in a game for the first time in his career. He’s batting .309 with a .772 OPS and is playing spectacular defence. All-star calibre player right now.
[Fox] John Tavares says he feels happy and relieved to get the deal done after a couple weeks of negotiating: "I get to do what I love, what I've been doing since I was a kid. And even though I obviously left some money out there, I've done pretty well. I'm still doing pretty well.”
