London Knights earn blowout win over Guelph Storm, honour 2005 Memorial Cup winning team

London defeated Guelph after honouring '05 Memorial Cup winning team

The London Knights hosted the Guelph storm Tuesday night, honouring the 2005 Knights squad before puck-drop.

The 2005 Knights have been dubbed the CHL’s team of the century.

They beat Sidney Crosby’s Rimouski Oceanic in the Memorial Cup final that year — the club’s first ever national championship. They also started the season with a CHL record 31-game unbeaten streak.

And the Knights appeared to channel that ‘05 energy against Guelph — running up the score to a 7-3 win.

Sam Dickinson led the way with two goals and an assist. Easton cowan recorded four assists.

The two teams meet again tomorrow night, this time in Guelph.
