Troops at home to the Spirit tonight

The North Bay Battalion continue a busy week that sees them play four times in seven days.

They’re home to the Saginaw Spirit tonight (Thursday).

After back to back over time losses against Niagara and Ottawa, Head Coach Stan Butler says he wants to see some more consistency from his group.

Although, he does say the rookies and second year players have been carrying their weight.

Butler says they need contributions from all four lines down the stretch and he adds “we’re a team that either wins a game or we lose a game, so when we play to our potential, most nights we have a pretty good chance to win. When we don’t play to our potential we have a good chance to lose.”

The Battalion are fourth in the Eastern Conference, two points back of third place Niagara.

Catch tonight’s game on Country 600 CKAT.

The broadcast begins with the pre-game show at 6:35 pm.
