Jakub Kindl makes his mark in Win
Last night’s game between the Kitchener Rangers and the London Knights was understandly going to be chippy as a result of a hit Jakub Kindl made on London player Rob Drummond in an earlier game. Here is the video of the hit.
Kindl definitely got the elbow up, there is no question about that. So that set the stage for last night’s game, which took place in London. The Record has a good article on the game. Here is how they described the atmosphere that greeted Kitchener and Jakub Kindl, who is a defenseman in the Red Wings system:
Seven minutes into last night’s game, Knights forwards Josh Beaulieu and Jordan Foreman jumped Kindl and tried to fight him two-on-one.
…
Later in the first, Kindl scored twice in a span of 70 seconds. On his first goal, Knights fans booed as he shot.Then, he scored.
Kindl pumped his fist at the Knights bench. He gave the crowd a papal wave.
“Right after I got jumped by a couple of guys, I was so happy we scored,” Kindl said. “They were chirping me the whole game so I just tried to give them a little, you know.”
Yeah, you know: a little phrase that starts with the letter f and ends with the letter u. The game had 14 misconducts, but the way Kindl responded to the challenge and the threat posed to him was most impressive.
