SUNDAY'S GAME SOLD OUT; DOGS CLINCH RIVALRY CUP

SAINT JOHN –Tomorrow’s Saint John Sea Dogs – Moncton Wildcats game at Harbour Station has been sold out as of yesterday afternoon. A limited number of standing room tickets have been released for the match.

With a crowd of over 6,000 on hand for Game Seven of the Brunswick New Rivalry Cup Challenge tomorrow, the Sea Dogs earn three points which will give them a 25-9 lead. Even if Moncton takes all of the points from the video game challenge and the two remaining Quebec Major Junior Hockey League games, it will only cut the Sea Dogs’ lead to 25-23. Therefore, Saint John has clinched the 2010-11 edition of the Rivalry Cup.

This is the Sea Dogs’ first Rivalry Cup victory.

The challenge began in the latter half of the 2008-09 season with the Wildcats coming out on top. Moncton then won last year’s challenge en route to a President’s Cup Championship.

The last game of the Rovalry Cup is Friday, March 4 in Saint John.

Details on the video game challenge portion on this year’s Rivalry Cup were released yesterday.
