The Knights took a 3-0 lead in the first period and were able to extend it to 5-1 over Flint in the second. Both teams scored twice in the final frame, keeping the Knights in the lead for the win.

JJ Piccinich and Matthew Tkachuk were the top scorers for London with two goals each, while Victor Mete, Aaron Berisha and Chad Heffernan each scored one.
