Also happening down the street this weekend: the Saint John Sea Dogs visit the Halifax Moosheads for a pair of games taking place Friday and Saturday night. Both are 7 p.m. starts.
No matter which event people choose to attend (not sure how much crossover the Magnetic World/Mooseheads audience has), the traffic is going to be terrible, this we can be sure of.
The Sea Dogs will look to build off a decent opening weekend that saw them earn a split on home ice against the Cape Breton Eagles. There are certainly some things to work on – but there were some positives as well.
The Mooseheads also earned a split on opening weekend, losing their opener in Charlottetown and then rebounding with a shootout win on home ice the next night.
The Sea Dogs and Mooseheads are at similar spots in their rebuilds, so this season series could, in theory, be a tight one.
A few other news and notes...
- The Mooseheads are led by Jasu Mensonen (two goals) and Shawn Carrier (one goal and one assist).
- Friday's game will be Saint John's first road contest of the year. The team had one of the worst road records in the QMJHL last season, finishing with a record of 9-23-0-0.
- Mooseheads forward Liam Kilfoil, a Quispamsis native, has committed to Northeastern University.
