Juggernaut and OUTTA DA WAY! + Knockback

This is the map.

MAP

Juggernaut Trait:

Quote

OUTTA DA WAY!: Give Juggernaut a power action to move in a direct path using Improved Movement: Ignores Hindering Terrain, Ignores and Destroys Blocking Terrain and Ignores Characters. After actions resolve, make a close attack targeting all characters he moved through. Hit characters are dealt 3 damage instead of normal damage and placed into a square that Juggernaut didn't move through adjacent to their current square.

Knockback:

Quote

A knocked back character is moved back one square for each 1 damage taken. Move the character in a straight line away from the attacking character—called the knock back path—even if that path is on a diagonal. If multiple characters take damage from a game effect that causes knock back, resolve the knock back starting with the character farthest from the attacker.

If the knock back path is not along a straight horizontal or vertical line, then the knock back path follows the diagonal line starting with the square that is on the opposite side of the target from the attacker, in both the vertical as well as horizontal direction.

So if Juggernaut uses OUTTA DA WAY!, running from B-13 to F-17, placing (Blue 2) to E-15, do they get knocked back into the wall?

Easy answer is No.

The Knockback mechanic is not a part of nor consequence of his Trait.

Placement is not the same as knockback.

Something witty this way comes

However, assuming you do generate knockback with the attack (Force Blast, doubles, etc.), they would be knocked back to E14, and if they would have been knocked back more than one square, they would take 1 knockback damage.
