Two Sea Dogs, Wildcats suspended

A pair of Saint John Sea Dogs and Moncton Wildcats have received multi-game suspensions following Sunday's pre-season contest in Dieppe.

Saint John's Brendan Milson has been suspended three games for a staged fight and for being a repeat offender. Moncton's Francis Langlois, meanwhile, has been suspended for two games for a staged fight.

Milson and Langlois fought late in the first period of Sunday's game and both were given game misconducts for the staged fight.
The 19-year-old Milson was called up by the Sea Dogs from the Miramichi Timberwolves for this game.

Saint John's Adam Bowness and Moncton's Maxim Barbashev have both received three-game suspensions for a staged fight and accumulation of codes. The two fought late in the third period on Sunday with Saint John leading by more than two goals - which the league considers a no-no.


The 19-year-old Bowness was also called up by the Sea Dogs for this game. Bowness, now formerly of the Campbellton Tigers, recently had his Maritime Junior Hockey League rights traded to the Amherst Ramblers.

The Wildcats have three pre-season games remaining, so both Langlois and Barbashev should be good to go once the regular season rolls around.

The Sea Dogs have now had four players suspended this pre-season. Milson and Bowness join Jack O'Blenis (one-game for instigating of a fight in the final five minutes of a game with a two-goal difference) and Hunter Gartley (two-games for cross checking).
