Not many details have been released yet,
but the Sea Dogs have acquired forward Jamie Armstrong from the Acadie-Bathurst
Titan in exchange for a 2016 fourth round draft pick.
Armstrong, a 16-year-old from Rhode
Island, was a sixth round draft pick of the Titan in this past summer’s QMJHL
Entry Draft.
He is committed to Northeastern
University for the 2016-17 season. Will he report to Saint John?

just spoke to his father the other night. I don't think Northeastern
has too much to worry about.

We shall see.
UPDATE: A couple notes from the Sea Dogs’
press release…
Armstrong, 16, is listed at 6'2",
190 lbs. The Warwick, Rhode Island, native is about to begin his season at Avon
Old Farms Prep School in Connecticut.
"Jamie is a big, strong, power
forward who can score, compete hard for loose pucks, and play a solid, 200-foot
game," said Sea Dogs general manager Darrell Young. "We
see him as one of the top 1998 U.S.-born prospects for the 2016 NHL Draft. He has
been well-schooled in the game by his father.
"He has a college commitment, but
we wanted his rights in case he changed his mind and focus."
