Calgary prospect Andrew Basha and his Medicine Hat Tigers did not reach the promise land of Canadian junior hockey as they were beaten 4-1 by the OHL champions London Knights in the Memorial Cup Final on Sunday evening.

The 19-year-old forward put up passes and created scoring chances, but none could be finished into the back of the net.
He tried to get something going during his shift in Medicine Hat's first and most promising-looking power play, but that too faltered.
The Calgary native will end his Memorial Cup campaign with one assist.
Two days ago, the Knights knocked out fellow Flames prospect Etienne Morin and the QMJHL champions Moncton Wildcats.
It was reported from Logan Gordon that Flames assistant GM Brad Pascall plans on having Morin on the Flames' AHL affiliate team, the Wranglers next season. Similar plans are being discussed for Basha.
