North Bay Battalion Goalie Shakeup: Is This the Turning Point?

The Battalion are bringing in Jack Lisson to back up No names McIvor, while Charlie Larocque heads to the Jr. B league. Is this the boost North Bay needs to break their six-game losing streak? Lisson comes with BCHL experience, a league now outside Hockey Canada’s umbrella. Does his unique background give him an edge? What impact will this move have on team dynamics and the development of the three young goalies? Is McIvor’s starting position truly secure, or could Lisson challenge for the top spot? With the Petes coming to town, a team Oulahen describes as structurally sound and tough to beat, this goalie change could be a crucial factor. Share your predictions: will this move solidify the Battalion’s netminding, or is it just rearranging deck chairs on a sinking ship? Let's hear your thoughts!
