Knights Win Sixth Straight

The London Knights are now riding a six game winning streak after defeating the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds 2-1 on Friday.

The game stayed tied until Max Jones gave the Knights the lead in the second period. The win gives the Knights 99 points on the season and keeps them in a first-place tie with the Erie Otters, who won their game in Guelph Friday night.

The Knights will take on the Saginaw Spirit next on Saturday at 7:05pm.
