PLAYOFF TICKETS ON-SALE; TOMORROW'S GAME SOLD-OUT

SAINT JOHN – Tickets to the Saint John Sea Dogs’ first two playoff games are now on-sale. Tickets went on-sale today at noon and can be purchased at the Harbour Station box office, by phone, or online.

The Sea Dogs will take on the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles in the first round of the 2011 President’s Cup playoffs. The first game is Friday, March 25 at 7:30 pm at Harbour Station while Game Two will be Saturday, March 26 at 7:00 pm.

Saint John enters the post-season as the No. 1 seeded team and will have home ice advantage throughout the entire QMJHL playoffs.

Against Cape Breton this season, the Sea Dogs are 7-1-0-0 which includes an 8-1 blowout win last night at Harbour Station. In their last two games in Saint John, the Eagles have allowed eight goals in each.

The rest of the schedule for the series has not been announced yet. Games Three and Four will both be played at Centre 200, likely on March 29 and March 30.

On other ticket related news, tomorrow’s game against the Prince Edward Island Rocket is sold-out. Standing room tickets are still available according to the Harbour Station website.

The game will be the final match of the 2010-11 regular season for both clubs. The game could also be historic as Saint John is just a win away from tying the all-time QMJHL single season wins record. A win would also make the Sea Dogs the first team in Quebec league history to go an entire season without losing in regulation on home ice.
