Blake Montgomery and his London Knights teammates completed a commanding four-game sweep of the Owen Sound Attack, securing an emphatic 8-4 victory at the Harry Lumley Bayshore Community Centre.
The Knights' victory underlined their dominance in the series, showcasing their offensive firepower and defensive strength.
Rookie Noah Read led the charge for the Knights, delivering a standout performance with a hat-trick and an assist. His offensive contributions were pivotal in securing the win.
Captain Denver Barkey also shone, scoring his fifth goal of the playoffs and adding three assists. This performance initially tied him for the OHL playoff scoring lead, but he later took the outright lead with another assist, demonstrating his crucial role in the team's attack.
The Knights' dominance was further reflected in the shot count, as they significantly outshot Owen Sound by 53 to 19. While their power play was 0-for-2, their overall offensive pressure proved too much for the Attack to handle. Owen Sound managed one goal on four power play opportunities.
This comprehensive victory confirms the London Knights' strong start to the OHL playoffs, with Montgomery and his teammates displaying the form that makes them serious contenders for the championship.
