It's been a good week

It's been a good week for the Saint John Sea Dogs.

The team has moved all the way up to No. 5 in the CHL Top 10 rankings after a week that saw them earn four victories - a couple of which were against two of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League's top teams in the Charlottetown Islanders and Sherbrooke Phoenix.
The Quebec Remparts were the top ranked QMJHL team at No. 4. The Islanders were ranked seventh while the Phoenix were an honourable mention.


A dominant second half now sees the 2022 Memorial Cup presented by Kia host Saint John Sea Dogs ranked fifth nationally following a stretch in which the squad has won 10 straight and 21 of its last 23 appearances. Bringing no shortage of offense, the Sea Dogs have racked up 42 goals in their last eight outings, headlined by league-leading scorer and New York Islanders prospect William Dufour who has registered 109 points counting 52 goals and 57 assists in 61 games.

Sea Dogs forward William Dufour, meanwhile, picked up more honours this week. Dufour was named to the QMJHL Team of the Week and named the QMJHL's Player of the Week. It's the second time this season Dufour has earned the weekly honour.

The New York Islanders prospect was also named to the CHL's Team of the Week.
Joining Dufour on the QMJHL's Team of the Week was Sea Dogs defenseman Charlie DesRoches.
The Sea Dogs are back in action on Friday when they travel to Bathurst to face the Titan.
