7. When Milton Keynes Lightning needed a white knight to step up and take the mic, it seems one literally appeared

Shout out to last night's announcer 🎤! Peter Sawyer, likes trains 🚂, history and he’s an author 📚. For work he is a kids entertainer 🥳 and started watching Hockey 🏒 in Nov 2017. We'd like to give big thanks 🙏 to him for stepping up. Great job Peter well done! 👍 pic.twitter.com/LhCZjhiSmQ

Come on the Mos! ⚪️🔵⚪️

Come on the Reds! 🔴🔴🔴
