You're getting an error because the catch part of try takes only 1 parameter - the variable that holds the error - not two as in the script.
Also, as noted by Peter, the try statement doesn't help you with the specific example you used since getting a non-existant custom property doesn't cause an error. I've sometimes wished there was a preference similar to the "Strict Compilation Mode" to deal with that.
