London did not own the walls of their very own building last night, in the old game this did not happen without any sort of punishment but this is in today's game. you can't allow opponents to come in here and own you like that.

Came here to deploy the big inflatable thing under the ledge just in case any of you fall off.

At the end of the day these are teenagers playing a game. Win or lose you all wake up the next day and put your pants on the same way. Step back from the ledge.

I'm curious how often overages get sent back from the AHL half way through the season? Saginaw made the trade for DelBelBelluz's rights hoping that he gets sent back. If a player is falling back in the lineup but can be a top line player in the O you would assume they might consider sending him back? Does anyone know of similar players that have been sent back in the last couple of years?

Marcus Phillips but I think he was playing in the ECHL.

Knights dressing 11 forwards, 7 D.
"4th" line consisting of the Boultons didn't see the ice until London went up 2-0. London doesn't have the depth to roll 4 lines. Smart move to maximize ice time of top 3 lines.

Can't keep any leads. Definitely looking more like a pretender than a contender. Either go get more secondary scoring soon or just blow it up

You draft all these D early. Trade assets for even more D. Make a bad value trade for a vet netminder. Should be good at goal prevention, no?

Draft some forwards early so your bottom two lines aren’t total ass. It’s not 2001 anymore.

It’s not a strong hockey club. But that’s life. It’s a development league. I have my criticisms of the coaching and scouting staff but I’ll keep those to myself. One more month to evaluate and hopefully find some value added deals likely on the selling side.

You are happy with this bullshit!?!?!?
He doesn't comment on or discuss London Knights hockey preferring instead to wait in the wings and criticize posters who express their disdain with how their team is playing. We are all fools for offering opinions on what is a 'discussion board'. If only we would come to the realization that management and the coaching staff know more than the casual fan, and we should simply remain silent on a message board, refuse to express our thoughts on the game....(where's the sarcasm button?).

No... the fools are the ones who do nothing BUT complain, disappear when the team does well, seek to make 8 trades a week and then when the Knights lose, they act like their girlfriend left them, their dog died, and their truck broke down.

So as a fan I’m not supposed to care? lol alright man
There is caring, and then there is over the top reactions.
