LONDON, ONTARIO: Dale Hunter, Mark Hunter, Basil McRae, and the rest of the London Knights organization are pleased to confirm that the Knights will be submitting a bid to host the 2014 MasterCard Memorial Cup. The bid documents are due on Monday, February 11, 2013, at which time the Knights will be sharing with the Site Selection Committee their business plan and theme in the event they are successful in being awarded the rights to host the event.
