London and Kitchener seem to meet every spring in the playoffs and it’s safe to say the two teams generally hate each other
Sam Dickinson had the best offensive season by a London Knights defenceman in franchise history. That 29-goal, 91-point performance in just 55 regular-season games earned him the Max Kaminsky Trophy as the OHL’s top defenceman Thursday. He followed Rick Green (1975-76), Brad Marsh/Rob Ramage (1977-78), Bob Halkidis (1984-85), John Erskine (1999-2000), Danny Syvret (2004-05) and […]
