I was very disappointed nobody went after Mutter. It should have been a 5 and a game...it was blatant intent to injure as Mutter went directly for Stranges and directly at his knee. Hoping for some revenge next SaturdayI wasn’t able to watch the game but I heard he went knee on knee with Mutter. Did he return after the hit?

I don't mind edgy players or a player that rides the fine line, but that was premeditated and as predatory a hit as I have seen. I wanted to see a pound of flesh. Very disappointed no Knight balled up. Lost a lot of respect for the so called "leaders" on this team. I noticed Mutter never took another shift.I was hoping someone would as well. We will see. It is how Mutter plays "on the edge" if you will .
But I have seen him "settle down" when there is pushback.
Not talking fighting.
So in other words...he goes from Mutter to "Butter" when the heat is on. Even less respect nowAgreed. Same page here.
Just saying he will play on the edge (fine with me as well) but also step over it and has in the past, will again in the future. (not fine with me)
But when someone steps up to him and answers in whatever way, he will stop running around like a "tough" guy.
Really?I'll be honest we deserved to lose that one...but its nice to get the win.....keep moving ! I thought Foudy played well....I dont recall seeing the 4th line at all
They looked VERY disorganized for most of the game. It's become more of a habit than a trend.Really?
The Knights were the better team tonight.
They Deserved the win.
Heres the deal though... it was a close game.. and they were in the midst of a real horrible streak which also saw 2 players get suspended. In the three previous games the Knights took a number of undisciplined penalties that contributed to the teams horrible play. I hear what you are saying.... but there is a time and a place. I think if you talk to the players they would have loved the chance to go after him. But I also bet Dale told them in the intermission to keep their emotions in check. I also bet if you spoke to Stranges hed say the win is more important than the retaliation.I don't mind edgy players or a player that rides the fine line, but that was premeditated and as predatory a hit as I have seen.

Maybe.. but Hamilton looked worse. One team had to win.. London played better than the BulldogsThey looked VERY disorganized for most of the game. It's become more of a habit than a trend.
Agreed there...every point is valuable. It just really shocked me that nobody even paid it any attention.Heres the deal though... it was a close game.. and they were in the midst of a real horrible streak which also saw 2 players get suspended.

Yes Hamilton didn't play well..but one is a .500 team...the other is leading their Conference. I expect more from the latter.Maybe.. but Hamilton looked worse. One team had to win.. London played better than the Bulldogs
Thanks for the Saturday morning laugh. I nearly spit out my coffeeFormer Knight goalie coach Bill Dark was the colour man on the Rogers broadcast last night.
Really interesting and informative guy.
you called him a REALLY informative guy...perhaps you need to rethink your evaluation processI thought it was the Piss in your cornflakes.
Why didnt anyone stick up for the rook?I was very disappointed nobody went after Mutter. It should have been a 5 and a game...it was blatant intent to injure as Mutter went directly for Stranges and directly at his knee. Hoping for some revenge next Saturday
About that own goal...in more than 50 years of watching Major Junior hockey I've never seen that happen and then I see it twice in the span of about a month (Kitchener did it during their last visit here).The Knights has to feel good today thinking their unfortunate time has finally turned and Lady Luck is finally on the good side again.
It has change when they scored a goal without even shooting the puck in the net and it was awarded to the last Knights to have touched the puck . Credited with the goal happens to be their top player on the team who's is in a race for the league top scoring title . I think last night however difficult that game was has helped the Knights turning the page and will finally make them with confidence a top contending team once again. IMHO
I fear you may be right. On the telecast they said the next televised game was this coming Tuesday against Guelph.looks like Sundays game isn't televised they have the Nationals game listed on the guide
