London Knights 2023-2024 Season Thread (Part 8)

ATA, Since the Knights bounced the Rangers it seems to be about agitation. Too bad, I used to enjoy your game and team insights. Hope to see the old ATA some time soon.

All I did was point out all tournament all teams entered and exited the same way through the same entrance, and my lack of surprise that Sawyer is the only one who had an incident. At this point no one should find that astounding. Carry on.

It's a pattern of behavior.

Hell of a team in 05. 2016 tons of character

I expect London to go out and continue to impose their will vs Saggy tonight. With these teams as close as they are don't undervalue London with last change.

I can see it getting chippy but with what's at stake I don't expect anything over the top. It will be interesting to see where the stripes draw the "line" tonight, I think a tighter called game favours Saginaw... a lot depends on which team if needed has to adjust and in which direction. This will have a cascading effect on the game as I feel London holds a marked edge on special teams.

X factor to me is goalie sharpness as Oke still seems rusty, and both have been susceptible to a softie or two.


Edit: really cheesed I can't watch tonight outside of the occasional check in.

Both teams have earned a second chance (regardless of outcome) after tonight based on 1st 2 games they played and setting the table for the 1st place game.
But heck, why not let the Saggy community enjoy a Friday night do or die situation vs MJ.
LK should have an advantage in adapting to any in game situation, or in a rematch Sunday. JMO.
Gotta think both teams will be focused buy hopefully Saggy is the more tense/eager/aggressive in looking to "get em back" Just gotta take advantage when ( cause they will be attacking) ops arise.
The counter attack is where I'd look to make my bank here.

Dale played 4th-line fairly regularly throughout the series against Saginaw, expecting him to continue that trend since he's had success against them with it, makes it for a faster skating game this way

I think whoever loses this will still beat Moose Jaw. Fully expect these 2 to meet eachother in m cup final. Ultimately comes down to goaltending and there’s nobody better than Simpson in this tournament

 

[frontsfan67]

Not sure how they didn’t wave that off

 

[ottawarenegader613]

Can Saginaw ever get a better goal song than Whitney Houston..uggghhhh

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Make up tripping call when the Knight didn't go down,

 

[Race Dawg]

Not a London fan but that Saginaw goal was horseshit. Clearly kicked in. The OHL is a joke....

 

[dmead]

Did they change the rules? That was as obvious a kick as it gets.

What is the rule? Does it only count as a kick if the skate leaves the ice?

 

[OHLfan200]

I would’ve called that a kick. So the coach can only challenge goalie interference? Is what I got as per the broadcast. Why give them a challenge at all if you’re going to put a stipulation on it?

Makes up for that garbage goal call

Something like the foot movement/influencing the direction of the puck I think

It just has to be a kicking motion.

Parekh again, here is your 5 game suspension

 

[dmead]

There ya go Parehk, ya slimy little krapweasel.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

What is this bullshit. You can't call an offiside after the play.
