London Knights 2024-25 Season Thread, Part V

Missed the first half … really glad I got watch the second half

Cowan needs to stop being cute and just play the hard nosed style, he’s played for the past 3 seasons. When the net was empty, he kept making cute plays and seemed like he was trying to give Windsor the goal.

I believe the game tonight is the definition of "Sh!tg!ng the Bed".
Go up 3-0, chase the Spits goalie and take their foot off the gas. Special teams not so special and lack of discipline evident the whole game. Shades of the Oshawa game from a few weeks ago. Just going through the motions. Pathetic effort after going up 3-0. Must do better.

cowan’s lack of hustle to stay with the Windsor defenseman caused him to take a stupid penalty. Then the whole ffing thing caved in. We must lead the league in undisciplined stupid penalties. Learn a lesson from it and move on. Just make sure you learn a lesson from it. I thought Allen alone had three, Bonk two and Cowan one. Back in the day Knights fans on forums called Kadri and turnover machine. Wasn’t he a Leaf draft pick. Still think he is playing hurt. I think we quit skating and playing good hockey once we were up 3-0. Better play will be required for Tuesday. Go Knights Go. Still in first and are good for it. Bobble head Cowboy Knight.

What an absolute joke of a third period. Second wasn't much better. Stupid penalties... bone head plays and LAZY back checking and turnovers.

Barkey game in and game out is absolutely fantastic. Absolute work horse. Nurmi has really been working his but off and playing well. Saw Barkey drinking a pepsi during the game.....haven't seen that since Chara.

This game really shows how this team could win the the OHL ( the first 30 minutes) or how they could be bounced in the first round of the playoffs. Jump into an early lead and then completely take their foot off the gas and let the opposing team back in the game. Take stupid penalties and let the other team then run the game and make bad play choices offensively and poor coverage defensively. Once the game was tied you never felt they would win the game. And they didn’t. Learn from this and all will be okay. Repeat it and will be not. The ingredients are there but they can’t seem to be able to put them together lately. Just don’t see the killer instinct needed to win it all. I REALLY hope I’m wrong with that last comment.
