Curious to hear the rational of the Halttunen suspension - first time offender, objectively not as egregious as what Parekh and Guo have done, multiple times. Even the biggest London Knights hater cannot disagree.

You'll be curious for a long long time cause they won't say a thing :)

Shocked they didn't take another look at the knights 3rd goal....looked real close to me. I thought forsure it was coming back. Then I took another very quick look bit it was hard to tell.
 
'Austin powers' Knights to 17th straight win! Yeah, Baby!
Elliot (10-0), with an assist.

Entertaining game. Kingston worked their ass off tonight. Uronen quite the player.
The W lets us forget about the icing late in the 3rd period that resulted in Uronen's tying goal right off the ensuing faceoff.

Get some rest...off to the nation's capital for Sunday matinee.
 
Impressed with the Boys overall poise and conditioning.
Barkey and Julien goals in the Shoot Out were excellent!!
 
Solid team effort. Perfect......Nope.
But they faced a good test n got by.
You can see the team play starting to gel
Thought it was a good test n game by both teams.

It wasn’t offside. It was close in real time, but clearly onside

What about the Elephant in the room ??
Yeah yeah I totally agree we need another D but no ones talking tonight about the elephant!! We need a Center that can win face offs
That C is on the knights. Just need to work on it!

17!
 
Wasn't able to watch the game tonight, how was elliot?
Decent. Kingston picked their shots or had screens/deflections. He was bombarded for the last half of the game.

I know this team loves to have the center try to win faceoffs on their backhand towards the boards especially late in the game, but I would not have put Nicholl in that position. Use your best options at C at that juncture, regardless of which side the opposition chooses for the draw. Can this team not win faceoffs on their forehand, ever? Small gripe, but these little things aren't so little when you're in white knucklers for a championship.

I was impressed by the Fronts pressure and their positioning. They didn't give London much room. When London found seams with speed, they made them pay. But Kingston has a good club, for sure.

Lol, no doubt. For a while the league was putting reasoning behind their suspensions on the OHL site but this is many years ago now.
I really hate whining about officiating and league discipline. For one, officiating is developmental in this league and for years we’ve heard the nonsense with respect to London from the tinfoil hat wearers. I won’t say anything more on the matter between the Saginaw Parekhs/OHL. You play the hand you’re dealt.

Arrowsmith has asked out of Niagara.

Rumors he’s being sent back to London for an 9th and conditional 14th.

:laugh::laugh::laugh:

Yes I know it can’t happen.
Don’t quit your day job. Comedy ain’t your thing. I think what you’re looking for is Gensupdates on X.
 
Cost us a goal tonight to tie the game late tonight and almost the game it was glaring against Saginaw last weekend too.
Last weekend and the whole series against Saginaw last year.

Either the current centres need to practice A LOT or they need to bring in someone that can win faceoffs consistently. Is there an ex pro in the area that was great at FOs? The Hunters like to bring in ex pros to help out so they need someone.

The OHL doesn't publish FO stats on the website but I suspect the Knights would be near the bottom.
