McKegg explodes onto scene for Knights

The London Knights picked up Greg McKegg, a Toronto Maple Leafs third round draft pick, before the trading deadline. He's led the team in scoring since his arrival. I spoke with him at practice yesterday to discuss his hot start.

Miked Up - Storybook Gardens

London's city council is recommending that seals and other exotic animals be removed from Storybook Gardens, a children's attraction in the city. I spoke to a few Londoners to get their take on the issue.

The plight of the power play

Though the London Knights have consistently been at the top of the OHL since the beginning of the year, their power play had been woeful. It has improved considerably in the last six weeks and I went to practice yesterday to find out why.

I talked to goalie Michael Houser and forward Seth Griffith to learn what the team has been doing differently.

Miked Up

I've started a new man-on-the-street video segment for Rogers TV on a show called Inside London. Each week I will go out and interview local Londoners about topics and issues occupying the public consciousness in the Forest City.

Here is the first segment.

Thus, there will be at least one new piece of video posted on this site each week: either a Miked Up episode or a new 2 Minutes for Instigating segment. Depending on how interesting possible topics are, there will be some weeks where both segments will be posted here.

London Knights welcome new centre

The London Knights made a flurry of moves leading up to the OHL trade deadline. I had the chance to talk to the final player added to roster for the stretch run, Austin Watson, earlier this week before practice. Here is the interview.

The London Knights were hamstrung over the past two weeks with regulars playing at the World Junior Hockey Championships and the Under-17 World Hockey Challenge. I spoke to assistant coach Misha Donskov about how the team fared in their absence.
