Troops season comes to an end

The 2018/19 season is over for the North Battalion.

The Troops were shutout 4-0 by the Niagara IceDogs in game five of their OHL playoff series Friday night in St. Catharines.

Niagara wins the best of seven series four games to one, having shutout the Troops in three of the games.

Goaltender Christian Propp (pictured) made 53 saves in the Battalion net, keeping his team in the game time and time again.

The IceDogs scored one goal in both the first and second periods, then twice in the third.

Three of the four goals were powerplay markers.

It was the final junior game for three Battalion overage players, Captain Justin Brazeau, left winger Luke Burghardt and defenceman Theo Calvas.
