London Knights 2023-24 Season Thread (Part 2)

[Frank the Skank]

Trade McCue

 

[Holden Caufield]

McCue is absolutely filling the nets! 8 games in a row!

With his speed, strength, age, physicality and heavy shot… it was just a matter of time until he put it together this year.

But that through the legs goal was a beaut… just shows where his confidence level is right now to even try that!

 

[LDN]

No more McCue slander! Lol

 

[Knightsfan90]

Hopefully this puts the OA discussion to bed McCue HAS value

 

[LDN]

Question for the wise folks. Why don’t they publish the time on ice for skaters?Where can it be found ?

Sarnia tv announcer is terrible. Mute button and Mike Stubbs commentary required

 

[Fastpace]

Great game - 6-2 over Sarnia

 

[ArielNederland]

Leonard going to get suspended. Maybe george as well. Good effort all around but gotta clean up the discipline

What is George getting suspended for exactly??

Got kicked out. Apparently 10 minute misconduct. Unless the refs just decided to kick him out for retaliating

So you get suspended now for getting a 10 minute misconduct? Again I ask why would he get suspended?

I'm just saying what the announcers were saying ( not that they are always right) just saying I wouldn't be suprised

George left the game because he received a 10 min misconduct and there was less the 10 in the game so he was sent to the room. Still don't understand why you would think he might receive a suspension.

 

[StingUpdates]

Crazy some want McCue gone. I can't stand the bugger haha but y'all have nobody like him. You'd notice it in a hurry if he was out for an extended period of time. Heartbeat of the team type player. (Took a lot for me to say nice things about him )

Gazizov definitely looks like a much better player than last season. Barkey as a Flyers fan is so awesome to watch. Very jealous y'all have him. Hopefully we can decline powerplays tomorrow.

Trade McCue

All he needed was a fire lit under his a$$.
You are welcome.

Way better than Sloan and Doyle.

 

[Fastpace]

Way better than Sloan and Doyle.

London Town has the best CHL hockey organization in the country, but must also be top CHL town of underappreciated and disrespectful fans as well. Wondering if the Knights truly deserves some of us sometime

 

[Purple Phart]

Way better than Sloan and Doyle.

Personally, I've no opinion on the TV commentators, good or bad. I'm usually watching all home games at the arena, so don't get to see their efforts. Away games, I tend to watch on Rogers, so I do get exposure to the competition's TV crew. Considering that I'm from an era when there was no TV coverage whatsoever, I'm thankful for what coverage we do receive, and are loathe to complain about minor irritants. Anyone care to go back in time to those grainy black & white snowy images, and no replays ?

McCue and Gazizov deserve accolades for their efforts over the last month. I am beginning to think we stand pat at the deadline.

I was thinking we needed a Gavin Hayes type player in the top 6 but with the big step up in our current players I think we are good.

Halttunen Cowen Barkey
Gazizov McCue O’Rielly
Sim Julien ______

I think there maybe an upgrade found on the third line while keeping the 4th as

Wonder if Mark has any no cost or low cost acquisitions up his sleeve, like we have seen in the past.
Pulling some from the AHL at a low cost high reward pickup or maybe signing an American, Frank Nazar?

London is still thin on face-off circles, although they have improved some what of late they still do not have depth at center. If London are to make a push for the playoffs, I am almost positive a centreman will be in their plans to get. The more you get puck position the greater are your chances

We just need one more player in our top 9. Maybe we don’t need a first line Center and put Halttunen up with the twins and put O’Rielly with Gaz and Julien. Either way we need someone in our top 9

All they need is a centerman good at winning the majority of his face-offs, bring him back to the banch and replace him with a top six center. They need to win face-offs. The way this game is played nor days, puck possession is so ever important now, not like it used to be.

Alec Leonard got 2 games suspension
