Sea Dogs call up Calder, Bellemare

The Saint John Sea Dogs have added some reinforcements for the weekend.

The team announced Friday that forwards Reid Calder and Chad Bellemare have been called up. Saint John dressed 11 forwards on Wednesday night in Charlottetown with Peter Reynolds, Cam MacDonald and Tomasz Szczerba all out with injuries.
Calder, a seventh-round pick of the Sea Dogs in the 2022 QMJHL Entry Draft, has six goals and six assists with the Saint John Vito's this season. He's also appeared in one Maritime Hockey League contest with the Grand Falls Rapids. The Saint John native had a goal and two helpers in four pre-season games with the Sea Dogs.

Bellemare, a fourth-round pick of Saint John in the 2022 QMJHL Entry Draft, already has 12 goals and five assists with the Saint-Eustache Vikings this year. Bellemare had a goal in three pre-season games with the Sea Dogs.

Calder and Bellemare, assuming they play, will both make their QMJHL debuts this weekend. Defenseman Jeremie Richard (third-round) and forward Jacob Beaulieu (seventh-round) are the only members of Saint John's 2022 draft class to suit up for games so far this season.

The Sea Dogs visit the Cape Breton Eagles on Saturday night and Halifax Mooseheads on Sunday afternoon.
