  After reaching the Ontario Hockey League finals in 2009, when they lost to the mighty Windsor Spitfires, the Brampton Battalion took a step back for the 2009-10 season. The Battalion finished the season with 32 less points than the year before yet still made it to the Eastern Conference semi-finals before bowing out.

  Just three members of the 2009-10 Brampton Battalion moved on to play professional hockey for the 2010-11 season. However, five players advanced to play university hockey in the OUA.

  Patrick Killeen spent his first year in the Pittsburgh Penguins organization by playing mostly for their ECHL affiliate, the Wheeling Nailers. Killeen appeared in 40 games between the pipes for Wheeling and was called up to play for two games with the AHL’s Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins. Patrick is under contract by the club until the end of the 2012-13 season.

  Mat Clarke played 80 games on the blue line for the American Hockey League’s Syracuse Crunch. Clarke is also under contract until the end of the 2012-13 season.

  Cody Hodgson played mostly with the Vancouver Canucks AHL affiliate, the Manitoba Moose during the 2010-11 season, appearing in 52 games. Hodgson played in eight regular season games with the Canucks and has been a regular during their Stanley Cup playoffs run.

  The scholarly gents include:

  • Ben Alavie – York
  • Brad Albert – Carleton
  • Ken Peroff – Guelph
  • Shane Kinsella – Guelph
  • Thomas Stajan – Brock
