London Knights 2023-24 Season Thread (Part One)

[LDN]

These types of weekends turn into winning streaks....just watch

Agreed. Might just need to wake up and understand how good this team can be

Curious how many of the people commenting actually saw last nights game?

It's curious how many watching only saw the bad side of this team and none of the good side

Only item here that matters is wins and losses

Team is still finding its identity. My rope is a bit longer before we need to panic.
I like what I see in spurts, I don't at other times. But I trust they'll clean that up.

Most time! You learn how to win by losing some

LDN will become a Rangers fan

 

[sbpointer]

Or else what?

They will propose MANY trades on HFboards ...

Still may do that if they win..

A few Knight fans hope he does! Kidding. He adds to the conversation and keeps things moving.

Nothing. Just saying when you make a statement like that don’t expect your fans to just chill

But you just said you'll do nothing

You posted "I don't care what the "feelings police" have to say. 86 and 7 invisible.3 is turning into a giveaway machine. 39 is taking a valuable OA spot"

You referenced 7/86/3/39 in your post I sarcastically responded to.......now it's also 4 other players? Gotcha.
Ya threw 4 more into the mix with your response....... So 1/3 the team? I'd try n explain how much value those 4 first mentioned will bring over the course of the year but.........
Trade em all, burn it down........or maybe just maybe those involved n know the situation can just coach em up n hope for the best?
Poor weekend.......sure. Bash 1/3 of the teams players in 2 posts.....your right to do so but 7/86/3/39 will give all they got. And no I'm not a fan of all 8 you mentioned in 2 posts but appreciate most will be......I'll stop
And I wasn't one complaining posters called out any individual. So drop the "feelings police" comment if responding to my post.

Says the guy who takes digs at other real rich lol
Sit some players wake them up period

Doubt they sit the 8 mentioned, esp the first 4 Nor would I think that's the right move at this point. But we are all entitled to our opinions.
See no digs and thats hard when so many leave the door so wide open.

Outside of Haltsy, O'Reilly and George, I haven't seen any 'good side' from this team the last few games

Nelli has a David Clarkson game worn Ranger jersey he could sell to Ldn.
Note: only if Nelli could be convinced to take it out of its frame and depart with it.

Well... when you have three -quarters of the "fans", on their cell phones and not watching the game it's hard to know what's going on. I guess it's a sign of the times. It is sad. Saw a guy riding his bike, no hands on handle bars....texting! WOW, that's crazy!

I once saw a kid on bicycle holding a glass bottle! of pop in one hand while watching where he had chucked a newspaper with the other hand; that’s insane!

What happened to Dickinson. All I know is this team is going through some stuff and gotta get their tude right.

I don't think I ever shared my David Clarkson story on HBs. Anyone interested?

And this was at a Knights game to? Yikes! Even the fans have talent.

City is full of talent! You should have seen the guy I saw the other day sprinting down Wellington street with a shopping cart and a 20' extension ladder strapped to it like he was about to joust an incoming car. Remarkable!

I have been a part of this thread for a little over a month now and I never thought it would have turned into such a comedy show 11 games into the season. The team may not be off to the perfect 11-0 start that most people in here think they should be, but take these things into consideration.

1. London had the most NHL prospects at camps this fall, so while other teams were coaching there players and teaching them their new systems, almost half of London's players were at other camps.

2. Since the season started London has played 11 games (tied for league most) playing min. 2 games every weekend with a 3in3 in there, while also playing a mid week game every week. Again leaving very little time to practice the new systems.

3. 6 of the 12 "starting forwards" were not part of the team last year and because Dale likes to blend his lines every game, you can expect some growing pains with the team chemistry.

Over the next 10 days London only has 1 game. This team has arguably the most talent and one of if not the best coach in the league. Give the team some time to figure itself out and by Christmas they should be top of the conference.
