The Niagara IceDogs won their third straight game, beating the North Bay Battalion Saturday night at the Meridian Centre.

An early power play goal by Anthony DiFruscia gave the IceDogs a 1-0 lead. Ryan Mantha beat Battalion goaltender Jake Smith with a shot from the point at 11:10, before Miles Liberati scored to make it 2-1. The IceDogs responded to Liberati's goal just over a minute later, as Graham Knott restored the two-goal lead.

Ryan Kujawinski made it 3-2 before Carter Verhaeghe made a beautiful play to set-up Knott for his second of the game at 11:49 of the middle frame.

Jordan Maletta scored his 19th goal of the season at 14:53 of the third period and that would be enough as they IceDogs topped the Battalion 5-2.

Brent Moran made 21 saves in goal for the IceDogs.

They're back at it Tuesday night as they travel to Sudbury to take on the Wolves.
