Sea Dogs move up to No. 5

Saint John Sea Dogs

A three-win weekend has pushed the Saint John Sea Dogs up two spots in the latest CHL Top-10.

The Sea Dogs moved up to the No. 5 spot in the week four rankings. Saint John had a perfect long weekend, posting wins over the Rouyn-Noranda Huskies, Charlottetown Islanders and Drummondville Voltigeurs.

Saint John has now won five straight games and collected points in seven straight. They sit second overall in the QMJHL standings with only the Quebec Remparts – who were ranked second nationally – sitting ahead of them.

The Memorial Cup host Guelph Storm remain in the No. 1 spot.

Here's what the CHL website wrote about the Sea Dogs this week:

A five-game winning streak, including three victories last week, has launched the Sea Dogs (6-1-1-1) up to the number five spot in this week’s rankings. Jamie Glance (2G-4A) opened Friday’s game against Rouyn-Noranda with two goals that the Sea Dogs never looked back from in a 6-3 win. The next day, three unanswered second-period goals put Saint John up 4-1, before they held off a third-period Charlottetown push to hold on for a 4-3 win. And finally, Glance played hero in the shootout for the Sea Dogs as they overcame a late tying goal from Drummondville that forced overtime. Zachary Morin (2G-2A) and Dylan Rozzi (3A) each had points in all three games, while Alexis Joseph (2G-1A), Thomas Charbonneau (3A) and Jabez Seymour (1G-2A) had three-point weekends. Samuel Meloche stopped 56 of 62 shots, and all three shooters in Monday’s shootout, in two wins over the weekend, and 2010-born Lawrence Williams scored his first QMJHL goal in Monday’s win against Drummondville. The Sea Dogs remain at home this weekend for the final two games of a six-game home stretch, with their third game of the season against Cape Breton on Saturday and then Val-d’Or on Sunday.

The Sea Dogs have a tough back-to-back on home ice this weekend. On Saturday they'll host the Cape Breton Eagles, who were predicted to be a top team in the league this season but are off to a disappointing 2-3-1-3 start. Then on Sunday, the Dogs will host the Val-d'Or Foreurs, who currently sit second in the Western Conference.

Recap: Sea Dogs win 4-3 (SO)

FINAL: Drummondville 3, Saint John 4 (SO)

SAINT JOHN - Make it five straight wins for the Saint John Sea Dogs.

Jamie Glance scored the lone goal of the shootout to give the Sea Dogs a 4-3 victory over the Drummondville Voltigeurs on Monday at TD Station. Along with stretching their winning streak to five games, the Sea Dogs have also collected at least a point in seven straight.

Alexander Donovan, Lawrence Williams and Jabez Seymour scored in regulation time for Saint John. Rafaël Courchesne made 23 stops in the win.

It took the Sea Dogs a bit of time to find the scoresheet on Monday afternoon. The Voltigeurs led 1-0 after one and it wasn't until 14:18 of the middle frame that Donovan got Saint John on the board with a power play goal. 21 seconds later, Williams blasted his first QMJHL goal with a shot top corner on Drummondville goaltender Jan Larys.

33 seconds after Williams' goal, the Volts tied it up again, making it 2-2 heading into the third.

At 8:49 of the third, Seymour put Saint John back in front. But this one was destined for extra time after Hugo Dufour scored at 16:34 to make it 3-3.

Dufour had two goals in the game while Maxime-Olivier Drolet added a single. Larys made 22 stops in the loss.
