Knights Slow off the Mark Today
The Knights were home this afternoon and hosted the Mimico Mountaineers. The game started off slow for the Knights with the teams exchanging goals but the Mountaineers soon took control and a strong lead. By the end of the first, Mimico had a 5-2 lead.
The Knights came out more forcefully in the 2nd, and exchanged goals with the Mountaineers, but could put together a consistent run to dent the Mimico lead. With the 3rd period starting and the teams six goals apart the Knights had their hands full trying to mount a comeback. Unfortunately, it was not the Knights game and the final score was 14-9.
The game was marked by a lack of intensity and it gave fans a feeling that the players were just a bit too relaxed today. Hopefully, this game showed many on the team that even if they have improved significantly over last year, they still need to dig deeper.
Scoring for the Knights were:
Chris Ford 3 G, 2 A
Craig Cowie 1 G, 3 A
Brett Lewandowsky 1 G, 1 A
Mike Zanyk 1 G
Matt Tenute 1 G
Jordan Joncas 1 G
Nevan Sullivan 1 G
