The London Knights will have a gold medal winner in the line-up next season.
It was announced Friday that Matthew Tkachuk has committed to the Knights. The 17-year-old was the 4th round pick in the 2013 OHL Priority Selection.
Tkachuk was a member of Team USA's U17 gold medal team last season and Team USA's U18 gold medal team this spring.
The St. Louis native will join the Knights in late-August for training camp and will wear number seven in the upcoming OHL season. He is the oldest son of former NHL player Keith Tkachuk.
