London Knights 2023-2024 Season Thread (Part 7)

[Knights Watcher]

Have to say, not a fan of how we're playing early on this period. Just keep flipping the puck out. Hunter getting outcoached the first 5 min. Just take it them.

You cannot interfere with the goalie trying to play the puck regardless of where he is.

Tweedledum and Tweedledee think otherwise. Play through it. Lets win this!

Im liking Danfords game. Solid defenseman.

 

[Knights Watcher]

Punnett is a b!t¢h

The rules say otherwise

 

[Knights Watcher]

That's how you make them pay.

 

[Ferguson Jenkins]

How ya’ll feeling?

The rules say otherwise

69.1 covers why it was allowed, as does the rule you posted. Incidental contact outside the crease. Reasonable attempt to avoid contact. It's a judgement call. Regardless of the decision neither team had reason to be too upset.

Goalie of the Year Oster with a Stellar 8.26 GAA so far in this series. Phenomenal.

Like a 4000 lbs gorilla that just sat on a school kid and took his lunch money

Call could have went either way. In the General scheme of things I don't think it will make a difference unless Oshawa can pull a major comeback put of their coaches a$$.

Not over yet. Remember Game 3.

My perspective on this series hasn’t changed in the least - - and I’m just as civil as I’ve always been.

As I explained prior to the series, even at full strength Oshawa is woefully outmatched by London in terms of talent and experience. With the injuries, Oshawa had ZERO chance.

I called out the ridiculous narrative that “London has equal injuries too” and Game 3 proved my assessment to be correct. Even with Punnett playing one leg and Buckley playing with one arm, it was infinitely more competitive than without them.

Even with an 0-4 sweep this has been a phenomenally successful season for a young Oshawa team.

Good thing is....London is young too

Why would anyone surprised, it's in Oshawa, remember the first series against Barrie, this is where they make rule change

Intentionally, yes. See posted rules for clarification.

 

[Fastpace]

This London team truly believes in themselves, and it shows on and off ice, there is no stopping them, Monday night rookie ties the game, another rookie wins the game in overtime. They are having fun

 

[PhlyerPhanatic31]

I am loving the confidence and maturity 73 is gaining in these playoffs with Lawrence and Sim out.

 

[crowncarrier]

Could be. I’d have to take another look but it looked like pad contact in the blue as well. Could be wrong.

I thought I saw that too but I think it to was outside the crease. Close call but I'd say good goal.

This team with Sim and Lawrence in can’t be much better, kids have stepped up.

Is this the GOAT?

 

[Otto]

Look at the Knights 3rd period on Monday, an compare it to Oshawa tonight. Age and experience my ass... that's coaching.

 

[crowncarrier]

I'm sorry but it's done.....wow. Really looking forward to the memorial cup.

So who is your choice for playoff MVP. I will go with George....to me the control, poise, and smarts he has shown in this series has kept the opposition at bay.

 

[StingUpdates]

Well. Congrats to you spoiled bastards. Haha. Helluva team. Showed why so many had them as the pre season favorite. GL in the mem. Looks like it'll be 3 absolute powerhouses as league winners.

Runner up Scorzy

Sometimes it's the kids with sticks n skates and not the coach.
The other team tries also and is capable of a push lol.
Nothing to do with coaching. It's execution on ice.

 

[Knights Watcher]

Rita McNeil is warming up in the back.

My choice would be Oster.
