Bratt & Mete taken off the roster on the OHL website not really a shocker

If you've heard something, send me a PM!

look at your calendar and who our opponent is. And then look back to the last time we played them and how that opponent keyed in on a certain Knight.

Has the potential to be a powder keg. See Robbie Drummond for further reference. That's all I'll say on the subject

Thomas was the player targeted that night in Kitchener, Connor Hall was the trouble maker. Robbie Drummond was a fast skating Right Winger for the Knights and I don't get the connection yet for the Jan 11th game, unless he has something to do with referring games now ???

Live a little in the past...it's fun. Better than watching paint dry at the Bud like we have thus far this season

I do recall that game and hit. At the time robbie Drummond was the Knight's captain, and that hit went unpunished ( in the opinion of Knights players and fans. )
The next meeting of the two clubs, Jordan Foreman & Josh Beaulieu both went after Jacob Kindle to "send a message" that transgressions of that sort would'nt be tolerated. Kitchener fans were somewhat astounded that the Knights would basically sacrifice that game in order to deliver the message. Kindle spent the rest of the game as a target, and the Knights lost the game due to power plays intentionally given up.



Rob Drummond was never again the same player that he was previous to the hit

What purpose do you serve on this thread? You are always negative 9.9/10 the subjects have nothing to do with the ice dogs. Is your life really that boring? I feel sorry for you tbh

Free country

Gives carbonara more time to drywall i guess

Eight game suspension looked it was based on reputation

Nothing is going to happen on Jan 11, those kind of games are long gone especially the ones with high expectencies. Kids can now go through a whole junior career without even dropping gloves once.

So long gone that one happened in our rink less than 2 years ago and in my opinion was the turning point in setting the eventual Memorial Cup Champions identity and team bond

I agree with you these kind of games help team bonding, I guess what I should have said is they are few in between to what it used to be and often hardly live up to it's hype . Coming from a time these kind of activities were part of the daily games or certainly a weekly occurence back in the 70s and early 80s.

That was the exact moment I turned to my wife who was listening to Mike Stubbs in the car with me and said " these guys are gonna be alright " . It was a defining moment for that group for sure.

Is the game tonight will be viewed as measuring test for the Knights or is it too soon yet?

How they prepare for an important regular season game against a top team or is it viewed as just another game. May give us an indication what kind of team we could have for the playoffs and if this is a go for it year or not.

 

[Snippit]

Important game tonight. Not so much for the standings but in terms of seeing where this team is at.

I hope Sarnia brings their best tonight so we can see where we stack up.

Mete not dressing for the Habs tonight.

Played less than 10 minutes last minute and Weber wasn't in the lineup.

I've been saying it for a while - the writing is on the wall for him to come down.

Carbonara got 8 games suspension for his check to the head !
