London Knights 2022-23 Season Thread (Part 6)

Is your 3rd goalie in the arena ?

They must be because pyette tweeted someone else is on the bench for backup. Well either that or ebug?

 

[TF519]

Is your 3rd goalie in the arena ?

No, Willmore is in Sutherland Cup final. Unknown who it is. Definitely EBUG

 

[Knights77]

Is your 3rd goalie in the arena ?

Somebody wearing number 80 just came out from the dressing room and went to the bench. No idea who it is.

 

[ArielNederland]

Update: pyette claims it's Finn Wilson ( our 15th rounder last year)

 

[horner]

Looked like he reinjured his ankle

Hopefully they can rally around bowen. Would be a good story along with winning for abby.

Brochu not even on bench

That sucks

 

[Knights77]

That’s bad conditioning to have two non contact injuries as a goalie within 2 years. Your main fitness goal is flexibility. Super disappointing for Brochu being his last season, but also for letting his team down (if he can’t come back next game).

 

[Otto]

No quit in this team.

 

[ArielNederland]

Honestly suprised though that we are up 2 games when sarnia has more firepower

Dale900 plays chess when everyone else is playing checkers.

Odd way of assessing the series to date. An optimistic person might say that the Knights deserve to be up 2-0 due to their solid goaltending, air tight D, speed, and opportunistic scoring.

Not saying that they aren't deserving, just an observation that sarnia has more firepower so I'd thought they would at least be tied in the series

Watched the post game press conference. How the hell can the Sarnia coach say with a straight face that the hit by DelMastro was not a penalty? Sucks to lose the game on a PP goal but the blame is on the player making the hit not the ref for calling it.

He is being outcoached big time, should be looking in the mirror, instead of blaming the refs.

 

[Fastpace]

Brochu injured!!

Brochu will be back in this series, he may sit game 3 and be back for game 4 in Sarnia. I liked the way he skated out on his own.

 

[nelli27]

One of George's best defensive efforts since joining the Knights.

No , this is his right ankle or knee, in Kitchener it was with his left leg

 

[Slowpace]

What's with Letang waiting so long to pull his goalie again, especially with a rusty and nervous BUG in net?

I was stunned at that. He should have pulled "Benny" around the 3 minute mark when the Sting had control in the Knights end. Mind boggling.

Im damn proud of this Knights team. They could have just rolled over after Brochu going down. Up 2 - Nil in the series, damn!

 

[dmead]

Crap!

Medvedev is a big kid. Wow! Looking forward to seeing him play.

Defence and Goaltending win championships

 

[Fergus31]

One of George's best defensive efforts since joining the Knights.

And he’s had many good defensive games in the green and gold. He was extra good today. Kid has a great head for the game and oozes poise.

 

[StingUpdates]

Hope Brochu is alright. Want SAR to win more than anything, but not because of injuries.

Hats off to ur squad. They've wanted it more than Sarnia. No way around it. Hopefully we can make it a series back at home.

Seriously? Blaming him for letting his team down because it’s his fault he got injured … come on. That’s a bad take, we have no idea the cause or reason for the injury.

Dumbest post of the year

 

[Knightsfan90]

Adversity!!!! time for the leadership to get the room together !!!!! Bowen is a very good goalie this will be great experience!
