But the Knights managed to mount a late comeback, scoring four goals in the third period to force overtime.
Oliver Bonk and Easton Cowan each scored three goals, with Sam Dickinson and Sam O’Reilly also scoring for London.
But it was rookie defenceman Henry Brzustewicz who scored two minutes into overtime, making the final score 7-6 Knights.
