In the end, this series wasn't even close. The Knights are conference champs.
When the Knights went up 3-0 last night in a dominant performance at London's Budweiser Gardens, there was a sense of inevitability about the sweep. They had Game 4 ahead of them the very next day at home, which left the Otters very little time to regroup and figure out how to get Dylan Strome and the rest of their offence moving. Although Erie pushed back somewhat more in this game, the result surprised no one.
Through the opening minutes of the first period, both teams appeared tentative, and neither generated much in the way of chances.
