Three Former Dogs Win MHL Title

Three former Saint John Sea Dogs are Kent Cup Champions.

The Summerside Western Capitals scored three times in the third period, giving them a 3-0 Game 5 victory over the Truro Bearcats at Credit Union Place on Wednesday night. The Caps won the Maritime Junior Hockey League Championship Series four games to one.

Former Sea Dog Danny Chiasson had an assist in the game. He finished in a tie for top spot in the MHL’s playoff scoring race with 21 points (12 goals and nine assists). The 20-year old had 88 points in 48 regular season games.

The Capitals also feature former Sea Dogs defensemen Spencer MacDonald and Jason Seed. MacDonald, who played 65 regular season games with Saint John in his career, had two goals and eight assists in 13 post-season games. Seed, who played in 22 games with the Dogs this season, had three goals and eight assists in 13 matches.

The Bearcats feature former Dogs Grant West, Dylan McGuigan, and David Mosher.

Summerside now moves on to the Fred Page Cup. They’ll also be hosting this year’s Royal Bank Cup.
