The current Villanova Knights' bench boss returned to his hometown Monday to take on the host Raiders for the Knights' first-ever playoff game in just their third year of existence, having won just a dozen regular-season contests prior to the 2009-10 campaign. Anderson spent the first half of this season with the Mississauga Chargers before being relieved of his duties, then took over the Knights after their coach, Phil David, resigned last month. Even after a strong finish to the regular schedule, in which Villanova placed sixth with a 33-19-4 record, the thirdplace Raiders were considered the heavy favourites heading into their first-round best-of-7 Ontario Jr. A Hockey League quarterfinal.

The Raiders held a 3-0 lead in the early stages of the middle period before the upstart Knights reeled off four unanswered markers to post the third-year franchise's first-ever playoff victory.
