Over the weekend, the London Knights would hit the ice twice at the John Labatt Centre. Both Niagara and Mississauga had invaded the JLC and were hoping to come away with some needed points. In those games, London would come away with a 3-2 loss to Visentin and the Ice Dogs as well as a 5-2 stomping on the Memorial Cup Hosts from 2011.

Following the win to Mississauga, I sent out the following tweet: "#Habs fans, got any q's for Jarred Tinordi?"

The following are those questions, and answers from the six-foot-seven mammoth defender.

Q: What is it like to be a part of such a storied franchise like the Montreal Canadiens?

Well it's definitely something special. I see when I go up for camp every year and in the summer time all the history involved in the Canadiens, and how much the city is behind the time. I think that's something special and it's something you don't get everywhere.

Q: What do you feel that you've most improved upon since your draft year?

I think my skating has improved a lot. I think my puck play and my positioning and things like that are all things I've worked pretty hard on during the offseason and during the year. I think I'm reading the play a little better; when to step up and not to step up. It's been a good two years here in London.

Q: What do you feel is still in need of improvement going forward?

I think skating is still the biggest thing. As you go up through the levels guys are getting faster; its getting tougher to play against the quick guys, so as a big guy skating is always important. Just need to keep my skating up and my strength up; those are two big things there.

Q: Wearing the 'C' for a Franchise like the London Knights has to be special. How would you describe it?

It's definitely a great honour. We have a room full of good leaders on the team, and it's definitely an honour to be chosen by my teammates to be the captain and represent them. It's an honour for me and I'm very thankful.
