Compiling a record of 39-25-2-2 in 69 games played throughout the 2017-18 Ontario Hockey League season, the London Knights would once again find themselves in the post season and competing for a chance to represent the OHL at the 100th Memorial Cup that was to be hosted by the WHL's Regina Pats. Their 18th consecutive playoff appearance, offered here is this pair of London Knights jerseys that were worn during the 2017-18 season by the likes of Joseph Raaymakers & Ian McKinnon. Both made by CCM, labeling from CCM/CHL is affixed to the inner collar along with size "58+" (Raaymakers) and "56" (McKinnon) tagging respectively. Additionally, a "Goalie Style" label is also found inside the collar of the Raaymakers offering. Both sporting CCM logo patches over the reverse necklines and left breast, a CHL patch has been added over the reverse hem of each jersey while an OHL league patch graces the right breast of each as well. For the Raaymakers jersey, decorated over the front with "Knights" going diagonally down the chest in stacked tri-layer tackle twill letters, the sleeves and verso have had his number "32" sewn to them in matching style while "Raaymakers" is spelt out in dual layer green-over-gold letters across the affixed white twill nameplate at the top of the reverse. On the McKinnon jersey, displaying a vintage style Knights crest over the front that features embroidered details throughout, his number "64" is sewn to the sleeves and verso in stacked tri-layer tackle twill numerals while "McKinnon" is spelt out in dual-layer cream-over-gold letters across the affixed black twill nameplate at the top of the reverse. Both having had alternate logo patches placed on top of each shoulder, each jersey also features the 100th Memorial Cup anniversary patch on the right sleeve. In terms of game-wear, the Raaymakers exhibits excellent game-wear throughout via numerous puck marks and a couple of light board burns while a good amount of red post paint transfer is found over the right sleeve with a smaller portion on the left one as well. Additionally, good pilling is seen on the interior and the jersey is photo-matched with Getty Image #927286242 (March 4th, 2018 vs Ottawa) to various puck marks over the right sleeve and front of the piece. For the McKinnon jersey, lighter wear is observed through board burns over the forearm area of both sleeves including one in the bottom cream stripe of the left sleeve that has resulted in a small unrepaired hole through the first layer of material.
