London Knights 2023-24 Season Thread (Part 5)

It's unfair Saginaw finished second and third place, well, next time tell your team to finish first

weird that it was not mentioned how unfair it is that Saginaw & SSM play in the same division as the last, 2nd last, and 3rd last place teams

5 Minutes for Slashing.
Is the play suspendable?

Marty McSorely never played another NHL game after doing the exact same thing to Donald Brashear. There's not a lot of precedence for a play like that. I just hope Travis Hayes is OK. Poor guy is taking a beating with the predatory cross check to the back of the head in game 5 as well.

Soo stomped spirit tonight. Tuesday’s game out to be good. Both sets of announcers are real homers for sure

 

[Fergus31]

Hounds looked real good. Tuesday should be fun - hopefully no stream issues.

 

[Fastpace]

What would be ideal, is one player from each team getting 5 game suspension each, for having low-heading players running into each of their backside. Now that would be fair when they come and play London.

I thought parehk would got one for his cross check from behind but he didn't so who knows

Laying down on the ice this often, does not help Parehk's drafting position and the contract numbers that is to follow. IMHO

If we ply him our guys will target him…. He’s the key to Saginaw

I am shocked at how pedestrian Saginaw has looked without Parekh in the lineup.

He’s the straw that stirs the drink, but also he’s a freakin hothead

I don't know about targeting any player, just be aware of his where abouts is important in a player like him,. Also have to becareful, just going by the wind will knock him down, trying to get refs attentions.

Who will they target if they don't play him

 

[HockeyPops]

Who will they target if they don't play him

Travis Hayes' head?

 

[dmead]

Hmmm... not sure. Anybody got an OA defenseman just laying around?

Love the ignore button.

 

[Rubbers29]

No was not a match and was not given a game misconduct

I am not sure where this rule suddenly came from and why it wasn't applicable in the first round?

 

[Fastpace]

Travis Hayes' head?

I hope you don't really mean that, do you. We've been talking about head injuries ever since Motew injured his head for skating with his head down, ran into Lawrence's buttock and side. The receiver of this hit got 5 game suspension for being in Motew's way, head injuries are very serious, and every which way they happen should be looked into to help preventing them, I know you are not serious but it's in your conversation, head hunting is not the way to go but keeping it up is

 

[HockeyPops]

Saginaw seems to have that as their target. One could argue that we seem to be targeting Parekh.

From what I read, the conversation in here has gone like this:

"If London plays Saginaw, we should target Parekh."
"What if London doesn't play Saginaw, then who should we target?"

Yes, obviously I don't want London to target Travis' head, but maybe you can understand why I'd be worried about the precise possibility of that being their target.

Apparently saginaw is really tough when targeting our smallest/youngest players, but flop like fish out of water at every opportunity with our veterans.

 

[ohloutsider]

Soo fans need to take the red tinted glasses off. Not one of them whinning about the Allard hit that got no penalty or suspension. Last time there was a hit like that in the Soo player got 15 games. How soon they forget. Both teams are playing tough dirty hockey. Funny how you only see one side of that. It's the playoffs. Carry on.

 

[HockeyPops]

Allard hit that got no penalty or suspension.

Honest question, which hit are you referring to?

 

[ohloutsider]

Honest question, which hit are you referring to?

Allard cross checking Dionicso into the boards. Dionicso got called out for staying on the ice too long.

Man that’s a tough one lol

Don’t worry we will be targeting your whole team. Not in a dirty way, hit to hurt not to injure if you know what I mean

 

[dirty12]

Travis Hayes' head?

That is really not fair. No one is really targeting T.Hayes because he is not worth extra attention.
If there seems to be a lot of contact to T.Hayes’ head, the coaches should review tape with the player so he does not in the future put himself in danger.

 

[Fastpace]

Honest question, which hit are you referring to?

Just like ohloutsider said, Soo fans do forget, but then again, every team fans forgets, including here in London
