Sea Dogs on New Year's Eve stage

Jeff Parsons/Newfoundland Regiment
The Saint John Sea Dogs will look to end a New Year's Eve losing streak on Wednesday afternoon at TD Station.

The Sea Dogs have dropped three straight New Year's Eve games and haven't won on the final day of the calendar year since 2019. Saint John will look to end the skid when they host the Newfoundland Regiment at 2 p.m. at TD Station.

The Sea Dogs are 6-8-0-0 all-time on New Year's Eve. 

2005-06: No game 
2006-07: No game 
2007-08: No game 
2008-09: 3-2 loss vs Moncton 
2009-10: 4-3 shootout win at Moncton 
2010-11: 4-0 win vs Moncton 
2011-12: 5-2 loss at Moncton 
2012-13: 3-1 win vs Moncton 
2013-14: No game 
2014-15: 6-3 win vs Cape Breton 
2015-16: 3-2 win vs Charlottetown 
2016-17: 7-5 loss vs Bathurst 
2017-18: 5-1 loss at Moncton 
2018-19: 4-1 loss vs Charlottetown 
2019-20: 6-4 win at Halifax 
2020-21: No game 
2021-22: No game 
2022-23: 4-1 loss vs Moncton 
2023-24: 4-2 loss vs Bathurst 
2024-25: 5-2 loss at Bathurst

While Wednesday's game will be the Regiment's first appearance at TD Station, this will be the third straight year the Sea Dogs have played the Regiment/Acadie-Bathurst Titan franchise on New Year's Eve. You have to wonder if the Sea Dogs will be making the trip to St. John's to ring in 2027.

The Sea Dogs have played the Wildcats seven times on New Year's Eve; Bathurst three times; Charlottetown twice; Cape Breton once; and Halifax once.

Saint John will play their next five games at home (which includes an Aitken Centre game) and will host the Regiment three times during that span. Saint John travelled to St. John's in October and lost both games.
