LONDON FREE PRESS ARTICLE:
Elliott improved to 8-0 in the Knights net and is 11-0 combined with his time in Saskatoon this fall. He denied four of five Attack shooters after not really facing them before in a shootout situation. “It is a bit different,” he said. “You play in the Dub (Western Hockey League) and I’ve played all those teams for years so I know what they’re going to bring. I try to watch as much video as I can and it’s the same game of hockey you play your whole life.” . . . The London coaching staff presented ex-Knight Alec Leonard with his 2024 OHL championship ring before the game. The overage defenceman is injured and didn’t suit up for the Attack in their first Canada Life Place visit. He is expected back in the lineup after the Christmas break . . . The London Nationals bounced back from an 11-2 loss to Chatham Wednesday with a 5-3 win in Sarnia. Knights prospect Eddie Hickson scored his 10th goal of the season and the 16-year-old leads the club with 25 points in 21 games . . . Sam Dickinson extended his personal point streak to 12 games . . . The Knights outshot the Attack 18-4 in the third period . . . London overage forward Landon Sim returned to the lineup and was at his physical best. He used boxing as a training exercise in the summer and it showed in a spirited punchup with Owen Sound d-man James Petrovski. “That was a sick fight,” Bonk said. “Lots of props to Landon for dropping them there.” . . . This was Sim’s first game back after serving a five-game suspension for calling a Soo Greyhounds opponent a ‘Mennonite.’ “It was bizarre and we were around him trying to support him,” Bonk said. “He was always around the team. There was no separation – division – between him and us and we were always there for him.”

If the London Knights stay in first place in the Ontario Hockey League the rest of the way, they will never forget the game that got them there.

That was a game, that despite outplaying OS all game, we should have lost. The hockey gods have smiled upon us and granted us good fortune.
….. Does anyone have a good looking goat to sacrifice?
The team that can pull victory from the clutches of defeat is something special but how can OS get up this morning and move on, that’s a heartbreaker!

I agree with both statements. It was funny though. They showed Sim and Petrovski having a very civil conversation in the box after, I believe I read Petrovski saying I wasn’t coming to fight you and Sim saying sorry I thought you were coming to jump me. From Sims perspective, I understand why he thought that. Just threw a big hit and all of a sudden a guy turns straight at you, but Sim definitely dropped the gloves first.
