Yeah but they didnt play that way. Been watching NB games this playoffs before the Peterborough series. Different beast from what we've faced to date. No idea on Peterborough. Havent seen a minute of their games. Either way. Gonna be good!
When speed starts to open a game up...doesn't matter how big you are. If you can't catch your target you're just another pylon on the way to pay dirt

Also, don't dare congratulate them on a good season on their board either. Apparently that make you 'arrogant'. Can't win. Either we're sore loser or sore winners.
Everybody against London.
See the Sting in 20 years again.
30* get it right

Kitchener
Kitchener was supposed to be big and bad too...we all know what happened there
Sorry I have to jump in here but no one on the Kitchener boards thinks we were big and bad by a long shot. I mean, we were big. But soft. We were easily intimidated, rarely used our size to our advantage (Schmidt) except for the occasion or 2. And we were slow but that is another story.

How key has Easton Cowan been to this team? Kid was everywhere. Arguably our best player with Winterton. NHL teams have to VW drooling

Impressed with how the D have bought in. George was a rock.

Commend dis team for buying into the team and helping Bowen
That kid is a playoff performer. Winterton has been unreal. Who else is happy we traded for him, Diaco and Humphrey?

Northern Quebec ( Abitibi Québec)
First period of game 5 was in my opinion the series turning point.

Sarnia came out flying and was all over London from faceoff they badly outplayed the Knights and had advantage in shots (15 to 5) and chances but London wouldn't break, putting Sarnia down 1-0 after that period. That had to be deflating for them, they came with confidence after tying the series at home and a big 6-3 victory game 4, their expectation were high.

Very hard to defend against a team that has four strong rolling lines three equally strong pairs of Ds and the very best in goaltender in Brochu and top rookie draft contender in Bowen. Name any player on this team and you won't be wrong !!!

Mark knows better than any of us on how to build a winning Team.
Not Just Skill. Gotta have a lot of grit combined with it.
George, Hump & Ryan bring it every game!!
They're teaching the young ones.

Can't leave Barks out of that equation. Key goals at key times and quietly sits one point behind Winterton and McGurn for the team lead in scoring!

Imagine if Winterton (like a father to the twins) could somehow fall back into our laps again next season! That, and six returning D! How could we not be favourites going in?!

Who said he's not smiling??
BB Tandem is the best in the O!!


Amazing tandem! Bowen is learning from one of the best Knights goalies and he will only continue to improve for next season! Also so clutch winning it in game 6 in sarnia! Awesome work Zach!

I gotta think Winterton is AHL next year…. Only thing he hasn’t proven is sustained health over a season

Congrats London!! Great coaching. Steady Defence. Balance scoring. Winterton, Barkey and George stepped up their game in this series. I give Bowen credit handling of the puck has improved and look forward to him maturing over the next two years. Fantastic Year!!
