Knights win... gotta complain

Barkey The Beast! He’s looking amazing over the last 1-2 months!! Great game to watch, Spencer had his best game by a mile. Love the next man up mentality by the D! Our goalies at times look human lately they were bound for a “cold streak” and by cold streak I mean they’d probably like to have 1 goal a game back which shows how spoiled with are with our tendys this year. Some amazing shifts by Cowan who looked like the “old Cowan” just out working everyone on the ice which made for a beautiful setup on the PK goal!

Going to miss Barkey, Cowan, Bonk and Dickinson. Seems like we have been watching them dominate for years yet none of them are even in an OA season.

I love the lines. Looks like some chemistry is finally forming with the lines.

I really hope Landon Sim gets signed to an NHL contract. Never thought I would say this, but not sure where this team would be without Sim.

I hope he really has turned the corner (especially come playoffs). Hope he knows he is more valuable to the Knights as an offensive threat and not a goon.

Yeah I really liked Spencer’s game
Some hits , good defense, even stole a puck for a breakaway

The line combinations tonight (forwards and defence) should be the ones used for the rest of the year. Balanced scoring and strong defensive play (mostly). The last two games were very impressive and there was only a bit of letdown due to the games basically being over early. The goaltending just needs to sharpen up a bit and stop giving up a soft goal every game.

Don't disagree with the line combos but I think it'll change a time or 2 just before or during POs, with a focus on a shutdown line.
Sim, Nurmi, JJ or whatever they go with. Just a guess based on the past.
But I really like the flexibility up front to flip flop 10 Fs anywhere on the top 3 lines and u justify any one of the options.

On another note, the latest/greatest automated concession made it's debut last night, as work began on a 2nd one. Also making an initial appearance was an $18.00 King Can ( twice the size of the cans normally sold ) My main critique, other than the price increase, was the increased volume. I don't know about others, but my primary motive for attendance is to see the actual game. Not to be interrupted, by folks buying beer cans 3x the size of their bladders, and having to go pee, between intermissions..
I do enjoy the occasional beer, but getting an overpriced one at the arena, isn't at the top of my list, and consuming a couple of those King Cans, would probably put me over the limit, were I to attempt driving home from the game
