Evan Van Gorp scored the game winning goal in a 5-4 London Knights victory over the Barrie Colts.
In their inaugural game at their newly named home Sam Dickinson scored two power play goals just 14 seconds apart to complete a hat trick and then Evan Van Gorp toe-dragged a defenceman and scored the eventual game winning goal to give the London Knights a 5-4 victory over the Barrie Colts on Oct. 11 in front of 9061 fans.All three of Dickinson’s goals in the game came on the man advantage.
The Knights opened the scoring late in the first as Easton Cowan made a backhand pass from the left side of the Barrie zone that freed up Dickinson to walk in from the middle of the blue line and pick his spot for his 2nd goal of the season at the 19:06 mark.Two second period goals by former Ottawa 67’s forward Brad Gardiner put Barrie in front 2-1 inside the first six minutes of the second period before London came back to tie the game on Jesse Nurmi’s first career OHL goal.
Wakely scored his second short-handed goal near the end of a Knights man advantage at 3:25 of the third period to put barrie ahead 4-2. Dickinson scored his second goal of the game at 13:22 to cut the Barrie lead to one right before the first Colts penalty had ended.
