Knights Win Third Straight

Christian Dvorak scored two goals on the weekend for the Knights

 The London Knights responded to last weeks loss in Guelph with a 7-2 win over the Storm at Budweiser Gardens.  It was the first loss of the year for the Storm.   London unleashed another offensive weapon this weekend.  Christian Dvorak came alive in the third period against Windsor on Friday night.  He scored his first OHL goal and even got some penalty killing duties.  The 17 year-old from Chicago will start a serious climb on NHL scouting lists.  One scouting website had him as a late second round pick.  NHL Central Scouting did not have him ranked in the top players to watch for 2013-14.  Dvoraks first OHL goal was batted out of the air against the Spitfires.  His second showed his speed and skill as he carried the puck into the Guelph zone and swooped around the net and beat goalie Justin Nichols to the post. 
   Dvorak was 5 foot 6 and 146 pounds when he was drafted by the Knights in the spring of 2012.  He is now 6 foot 1 and hasn't lost his speed and skill.  

Bo Horvat wins faceoff against the Windsor Spitfires

Bo Horvat has returned to junior hockey to dominate.  He scored two goals in the first 7 minutes of the Knights biggest early season game against the Guelph Storm.  Horvat's return will most certainly result in some big offensive numbers.  He already has a keen sense of his defensive duties.  The 9th overall pick by the Vancouver Canucks will grow confidence in his offensive game that will certainly carry over into the pros.
