London Knights 2024-25 Season Thread, Part I

[LDN]

Somebody else on here already said Nov 1 is a realistic timeline for the Musty situation to be resolved. He would need a month of games to get in shape and get his timing back before the WJC.

Yes his window is short for WJC

So will Zhakarov play for the Knights this year? He looks similar to Semenov. Both tall lanky forwards.

Regarding Semenov I know he is signed, but playing at Omaha. Is he loaned there?

Before they deleted the post, they said zhakrov will be playing for his junior team this year. Semenov is loaned to Omaha, visa is taking ages

So you think that agreement is still in place or there are complications?

Couldn’t be more wrong. Never really has an extra year of OHL hurt a player.

Um ok....seems the rule of giving a player the opportunity at a certain age disagrees with you. It's why the AHL option is in place. So in turn....you couldn't be more wrong.

This makes zero sense lol!

Nope @crowncarrier and @Otto unfortunately you were close but both of you are wrong and we found out the answer…..

Attack add OA d-man Alec Leonard from the London Knights

The Owen Sound Attack added recently waived overage defenceman Alec Leonard from the London Knights for a conditional 14th-round pick in 2027.

www.owensoundsuntimes.com

“In an interview, DeGray said Smith is expected to miss six to eight weeks with an upper-body injury. Leonard had cleared waivers but remained a part of the London Knights’ 50-man roster. With a sudden need for a veteran d-man, and with Leonard’s good reputation around the league, DeGray said he acted quickly to acquire the blueliner.”

Never knew that OHL clubs can hold up to five OA's on their roster until Nov. 15. I knew thew could have 4 up until trade deadline on Jan. 8. Learn something new every day. So I'm assuming Willmore is still Knights property until Nov 15th then since he cleared waivers.

This makes zero sense lol!

Please explain how it makes zero sence....enlighten me please. There's a rule in place to allow players to play in the AHL opposed to playing in the OHL. What other reason would there be besides taking their development to the next level. If you're going to say something makes zero sense please provide your logical thinking along with it rather then the cop out lol BS.

Been posted many times he is on loan until visa issues are resolved.

Is musty leaning towards London?

Hope not. Don't need him.
