Perrott is tough as nails

Complete lack of class from Dale Hunter and the London Knights in this game. Intentionally attempting to injure players on multiple occasions is not acceptable in today's OHL.

The Greyhounds are such little angels.

These announcers are a joke. Both players had their hands up. Timmons just happened to be the one that fell. To say Bouchard should be suspended is laughable.

Come on.....The Knights didnt/couldnt do that...our players are too small

 

[LDN]

5th place....Pretty good considering the 1-8-1 start and trading 4 of our top guns! Bring on the Attack!

 

[Snippit]

Too bad Kingston lost. Knights will pick 14th overall.

Windsor must be feeling mixed about their win against Saginaw. Instead of picking 5th overall, they're picking 10th overall.

It was certainly a physical game, but "intentionally attempting to injure players on multiple occasions"? Plural? That certainly wasn't acknowledged by the Soo announcers with the exception of Bouchard's highstick on Timmins--that was admittedly intentional--not one of his finest moments. Tymkin's slashing penalties were deserved, but clearly wouldn't constitute an intent to injure.

Perrott is tough as nails

Soo-Knight Tilt:
Tim Gettinger is listed @ 6' 6" 218lbs.
Andrew Perrott is listed @ 6' 0" 200lbs.
Perrott is 16 years old and hammered Gettinger with some good shots.
Very tough kid with nice skill level!

 

[zman77]

Boys played their 3rd game in the 2.5 days.
The last game against a 'complete' Soo team who are #1 in the CHL.
The SH goal at the end of the 2nd period was a tough one to give away.
Up until that point it was anyone's game to win.
Like the character of this young team.

6-3 loss for to the Greyhounds

Got to be proud of this group of young players, a tired bunch of 16-17 & 18 yr olds playing toes to toes against the well rested up country’s best 18- 19 & 20 yr olds. This is how you build winners by playing other winners, it was a tall order to beat Soo on the road playing three games in less then 46 hrs. This team is truly amazing and looks promising for the future, but wait, this year’s playoffs is not over yet. Who’s not looking forward to Owen Sound as the Knights are no quitters and very much looks ready to go too.

The first period Friday night at home is where they lost the fourth seed finish, I think it’s best this way as they have been playing really well at the Bayshore in Owen Sound this year, And we get to pick ahead of the attack in the draft as well.

Very good tilt perrott got the quick start and got some shots inn but wants Tim got the fist going it was all Timmy for the rest.

 

[bear6]

very entertaining game but i dislike when the refs have to get in the middle of the game, brutal calls both ways and lots of missed call all over for both teams. His would be am excellent series if they where to meet in the second round

 

[nelli27]

Post-game thoughts:
Overall, I was quite pleased with how the young Knights played--3rd game in 2 1/2 days. Bouchard played well, did everything he could to carry the team until he turned over the puck resulting in the shorthanded goal by Kopacka. That goal put the Astros up 4-3.
I felt Johnson's save off of Foudy was the turning point.
Love Perrott's toughness especially for a rookie; willing to take on Gettinger and acquitted himself nicely.
It will be a year or two, but the stars will align soon enough.

hopefully somebody has an ice pack for perrott. the guys face probably looks like Rollo's right now.

Oh I think Perrott was still getting some shots in and still fighting back until the end, I just couldn't believe seeing big Gettinger fists pumping after the fight I guess it was for not being able to knock down a smaller sixteen yr old Perrott. Andrew Perrott is going to be the killer Beast of this league, I can just see NHL GMs all drooling up over this guy for the 2019's draft.

I agree, the refs overdone their authorities in this game and this is why it got out of hand in the third, the first 25mi of the game was fine until they started mocking it up with their needless callings. IMHO

Not the result I wanted BUT
What an entertaining game!
Bring on the Attack.

 

[GobigorGohome]

Tymkin doing his best to ensure the Knights don't finish 4th today....keep him on the bench!

My question is WHY is he on the PP??
Regula Should be on the PP as a Forward in and around the net.
Good news Timpkin Only took 3 penalties[sarcasm alert.]
ZZMAN you have Dales ear so pass this on .
Thanks

 

[PhlyerPhanatic31]

seriously, Perrott's face was so swollen in the hall after the game he was almost as ugly as Rollo! that guys face looks like a sharpeis butt.

Your posts were 15 minutes apart...and you went from an assumption of what his face looked like to actually viewing Perrott in the hallway after the game when he had been ejected and was already in the dressing room. That's some pretty thick BS

 

[superdee]

I really think if Foudy scores on the two on one it is a different outcome. Somebody had better tell Tymkin to stop taking the stupid penalties. He is better then that for crying out loud and he puts the team back on their heels. The two hand slashes are not going to be missed and Stevie Wonder could call that elbow, What's the point taking 3 dumb penalties a game? Do they throw out the three fight rule for the playoffs?

 

[GobigorGohome]

LOL I am listening now. Hunter pulls the goalie a 6 on 3????? Wow we could use a goal or two

We got some shots but Johnson was solid.
