Top Leafs Prospect Poised For Breakout Year
The Toronto Maple Leafs have been looking for young players to impact their roster for several seasons. Matthews Knies stepped up last year and showed that he is a potential part of the Leafs' future.
Another Leafs' prospect who has been shifted aside but still possesses great potential is Nick Robertson
Injuries Cloud Robertson's Potential
2019 second-round pick by the Toronto Maple Leafs Nick Robertson looked to be on his way to being a major piece for the Leafs' playoff runs. However, three seasons of injuries later and his future is a bit more uncertain. When Robertson went down with a shoulder injury in January many around the NHL kind of forgot about Robertson as it was his fourth major injury since joining the Leafs.
Potential Star In The Making
When healthy Robertson has shown flashes of brilliance. In his most recent NHL stint, he put up 5 points in 15 games.
Robertson will look to come back to camp stronger and better than ever. He trains with his brother Jason who recently just posted over 100 points in 2022-23. This will surely help to drive and improve Nick himself. If he can keep healthy for an entire season he could be talked about as one of the best young NHL players by this time next year.
