Sarnia's Jonathan Ang scored at 2:44 of the third and Cam Dineen put the Sting to within a point at 7:05.

Ethan Szypula tried to preserve the Attack's lead at 14:07 but the the Sting would score two unanswered goals -- including a successful penalty shot by Jamieson Rees and a power play goal by Jordan Ernst -- to force extra time.

London 7 Ottawa 5

Alex Formenton. Cole Tymkin and Sergey Popov scored and had an assist each in London's 7-5 win over Ottawa.

The Knights gave up a 4-1 lead, allowing the 67's to score once in the second and twice in the first half of the third period.

Tim Fallowfield, Billy Boskal, Alec Regula and Evan Bouchard all scored in the Knight's four goal first period. They chased Olivier Tremblay from the 67's net by the time the opening frame was over. He allowed four goals on 11 shots. Cedrik Andree made 17 saves on 19 shots in relief.
