Brantford Bulldogs News Release

HAMILTON, ONTARIO. They may have been separated by 26-points in the standings, but the Hamilton Bulldogs gave the Western Conference leading Knights all they could handle Friday night in London as the hometown team escaped with a 4-2 win.

After a scoreless 1st period, the Bulldogs got on the scoreboard first as Logan Morrison (12) tapped one home on the power play at 8:20 of the 2nd period. The Knights offense then came alive with two goals less than two minute apart to take a 2-1 lead.London took a 3-1 lead less than six minutes into the 3rd period with Isaac Nurse (13) getting rewarded for going to the net as the Knights lead was cut to 3-2. With Bulldogs goalie Zachary Roy on the bench late, the Knights got a break as Hamilton's Jan Jenik lost control of the puck in front of the empty net as it just crossed the goal line to give London the 4-2 insurance goal.

3 STARS:

1) Liam Foudy (LDN) 2) Evan Bouchard (LDN) 3) Zachary Roy (HAM)

The Bulldogs return home for a weekend double header starting tomorrow night when they host the Saginaw Spirit at FirstOntario Centre at 7pm.
