The Sea Dogs faced some adversity early in the week as their Thursday night match in Moncton was pushed to Friday due to a snow storm, forcing the team to play their second straight three-in-three weekend.
But Saint John was able to pull through the tough schedule with a sweep. The Dogs defeated the Wildcats 4-3 on Friday before beating the Baie-Comeau Drakkar 6-1 on Saturday night at Harbour Station and 5-2 on Sunday afternoon.
Other Quebec Major Junior Hockey League teams to crack the weekly top 10 were the Montreal Juniors at No. 4, Quebec Remparts at No. 6, and the Drummondville Voltigeurs at No. 10. The Lewiston MAINEiacs were an honourable mention.
