London Knights 2024-25 Season Thread, Part II

[All the Answers]

Wish I still had my 3 screen grabs of Kaleb Lawrence elbowing Motew last year from virtually head on in the playoffs. FP defended to the death that Motew ran into the back of him. Not like there needs to be more piling on of evidence to prove he has no idea of what he speaks.

We could use another big forward like Lawrence somewhere in the bottom 6

Report the problematic posts. Don’t reply.

Thanks.

Yes! TY.
Still remember a post of mine when London was up in a series.
"Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbour?"
Took a bit of flak on my history knowledge til someone stepped and referenced Animal House n Belushi lol.
As on HF the "Rags" board was always a good read with knowledgeable fans.

I wish the Internet Wayback Machine would allow for a search. I remember that post. Too funny

Yes I understand that, but how do we know that the Soo player never said he was going to kill him like Hache did. The transparency is zero meaning the league is trying to hide something once again.

It is hard to conclude that Sim is an "idiot" when we have zero clue what came his way first. If he is sticking up for a teammate or defending himself I do not personally feel anything is wrong with that. Once again we have zero context so how do you know he was doing something "Stupid" ...that street goes both ways. You can't condemn me for having no context when you are trying to put the shoe on the other foot using the same context.

So two wrongs make a right now? You can argue inconsistency with this point, but it doesn't negate the poor choice (or stupidity if you choose). To use your previous argument of death threats being against the law off the ice, whatever Sim said was against the rules regardless of context. They don't make "yeah but" exceptions.

Not our Sim, but surprised he passed through the O

With the recent influx of talent and more to come, why give a spot to him?

Let's see drafted at 5'8" 160 lbs put up 5 assists in 43 games last season. Played only 9 games this season and has 1 assist. Sounds like what every team needs.

So everyone who else is on the radar for additions to the current roster? Any NCAA guys?

They've won 9 in a row. Why do you want to mess with that?

Fair point. A solid start to the year

listen, Sim is exactly the type of player you live and die with. He plays on and over the line at times, but he’s unique and he gets under the skin of the other team. He’s effective at his job

He literally killed the mem cup final when he got kicked why have a guy who can't keep his head straight

 

[Knightsfan90]

Send Landon with him

TBH they were pretty crap as a group until then and for 20 min after.
They looked dead from opening puck drop with a 3rd period surge. ( kudos Sag, they had something to do with it but dang LK looked lifeless for 40 min)
It was alot more that dug that hole to dig outta than Sims penalty. And yes,
he shouldn't have done it.

Was it a record low for SOG in a final?

what?!? is there a back story to this?

All I’m saying is something we already knew and that is that Blake is going to the NCAA next season.

Kasper Halttunen still on IR did not play for the barracuda last night.

Kasper Halttunen still on IR did not play for the barracuda last night.

He partook warmups last night so he is close. Probably plays at least one game this weekend. Who knows if he gets sent down after this weekend or not….

When Bystedt comes backs and Coe comes back Halttunen would probably be stuck on the 4th line.

As more time goes by, if he doesn’t get sent down soon, it becomes more likely that he will go to the WJC and they will see how he does there and then get sent back down after the WJC.

That would make sense! Speaking of WJC who do you predict gets a shot from the Knights?

I see no reason for the Sharks to send Kasper to London. For his sake, I hope he gets healthy and continues to play well in the AHL.

Okay then who will our import be?

Nurmi?

You don't have to fill the import slots. And where are you going to find an import at this point that displaces someone from the current roster?
