London - March 23, 2014 - Nikita Zadorov scored twice and added two assists, as the London Knights doubled the Windsor Spitfires 6-3 on Saturday night in Game Two of their Best-of-7 Western Conference quarter-final.

Along with Zadorov's pair, Max Domi (1), Chris Tierney (2) and Brett Welychka (1) staked the home side to a 5-0 lead before the game was 30 minutes old.

The Spitfires didn't quit, getting a shorthanded goal (Brady Vail, 15:49, 2nd period), an even strength goal (Nikita Yazkov, 7:37, 3rd period) and a power play goal (Ben Johnson, 10:37, 3rd period) to cut the lead to 5-3.

But with Remy Giftopoulos serving a hooking penalty, Bo Horvat scored his second goal of the series to put the game away with less than six minutes to play.

Alex Fotinos made 47 saves in a losing cause for Windsor, which returns to Windsor for Game Three on Tuesday night down 2-0 in the series.

Anthony Stolarz had 33 stops, winning his second game in as many starts.
