That season, the Red Wings won the Stanley Cup , but he didn't play enough for his name to be engraved on the cup. In the following season, his first season as a full-time player in the NHL, the Red Wings were able to win the Stanley Cup again and this time Knuble's name was immortalized on the cup, although he had only played three playoff games.
Before the 1998/99 season , Knuble was given to the New York Rangers in exchange for a second-round suffrage, with which Tomáš Kopecký was later elected .

After resumption of play in the NHL Knuble 2005 received a contract with the Philadelphia Flyers .
