I'm going out on a limb here and say that that isn't all you will have to say
Bwahahaha....
Just wait to watch how quickly this board implodes after George steals game one with 51 saves!
It probably has to do with green dyed t-shirts being more expensive than the raw white versions. Green isn't normally a colour in high demand, so there was probably an inventory problem, and not being able to supply the required quantities in time to get them printed. Also, shirt printers will tell you that white shirts are easier to print. White, or colours on green are subject to the green dye bleeding through, making a more opaque ink necessary.....again, more costly per unit. Kelly Thompson would be disappointed, since it was he, who originated the "House of Green" idea.

Yes London's one and only original idea given to them by an ex-Knight and London's own. If cost is true that is sad based on how much ticket prices go up each round unjustifiable so ( Rent cost the same ). Just my five cents.

There also exists, another unique and original idea that was fan initiated, but continues to this day, That is the " Sombrero Club" whose membership is exclusively for Knights players who have scored a "hat trick" in a game. Trevor Kell was the first player to don the sombrero post game and get recognized for his achievement. There might have been previous players, but if so, they didn't skate out with the sombrero on their heads following the game. Perhaps someone with a better memory can relate who, if any got a sombrero before Kell.
For those fans who think that "Sweet Caroline" has become stale, tired, and past it's prime, let's come up with some alternatives as possible substitutes to get fans clapping and rocking. Consider it a challenge.
Toward that end, here's my entry:

I would love to see mid intermission jousting match or any thing that truly medieval times LARP. It’s ridiculous but when done right could be fun and original.
London has so much history to tap into, the last drop on Talbot used to be the hangman’s house, could definitely play on that for opposition penalty times.

Cam Allen has taken an awful lot of penalties in the last 5 games … many of them stick infractions.

London win their first playoffs game of the 2025 run 6-1 over Owen Sound
The Knights came to play hockey, Owen Sound came to fight, London accepted most of the challenges. If London are not careful, they could be drawn into league suspension along with Owen Sound
I wouldn't classify this one as a great game, strong effort, yes, but not great.

Who Cares are penalty kill is awesome he’s s great defense man and probably stops more chances other teams get all game long then the 2 min he takes got being a tough defender
Knihts Beat them every way possible last night
George can’t steal games with the defensive in front of him I felt bad for him they should of pulled him

Yes, the penalty kill is great. But that catches up with you against good teams, I don’t mind if he’s taking penalties to stop goals. But a slashing penalty in the neutral zone is not a good penalty to take and he took 2 stick penalties last night. Stick penalties usually happen when you get beat or are undisciplined. I would just like to see him clean those up a bit, because as we get deeper in the playoffs, those will kill you.

I agree, once Sim made it 5-1 early in the 3rd I looked directly at Scott Wray and thought he was going to throw in the towel and pull George. Would have made sense at that point, give him the third period off because 2 oclock Sunday is going to come quickly for him!

Some kid in the marketing department (without putting any thought into it) is trying to make a name for themselves. Wearing the same colour as the away team, and going away from house of green….just dumb.
