SN Live Blog replay. Less than a week until the showdown with Shawinigan. Can’t wait.

MISSING IN ACTION: Forwards Jonathan Huberdeau (foot), Stanislav Galiev (wrist), Aidan Kelly (upper-body), and Stephen MacAulay were all missing from the Sea Dogs’ lineup on Saturday night.

UP AGAIN: Stephen Anderson was in the lineup again for Saint John. Anderson had a goal, a +2 rating and three shots in the game. Anderson played for the Summerside Western Capitals on Friday night, the Sea Dogs on Saturday and was in the Capitals’ lineup again today.

HOME STREAK: The Sea Dogs won a team record 14th straight home game on Saturday night. The Dogs have unreal at Harbour Station this season and now have record of 14-1-0-0 and have outscored opponents 81-34.

WEEKEND SWEEP: The win gave Saint John a weekend sweep in their mini-series with the Eagles. They outscored them 9-3.

PHILLIPS: Zack Phillips saved his best for last, recording an assist and empty net goal in the third period. The two points extended Phillips’ point streak to 19 games, a span that has seen him record 12 goals and 24 assists.

HENDERSON TOUR: The Paul Henderson Jersey Tour made a stop at Harbour Station on Saturday. The mobile exhibit was setup in the west end of the parking lot. It featured memorabilia, videos, interactive displays and, of course, Paul Henderson’s jersey from the 1972 Summit Series.

Former National Hockey Leaguer Dennis Hull was in house and is currently travelling with the exibit.

GAUTHIER: In the second period, Danick Gauthier kept his incredible season rolling by scoring his 26th goal of the season in just his 29th game of the year. He also scored in Friday’s game against Cape Breton.

AUGER: Huge game from Sebastien Auger last night. It was probably the best game he has played thus far in his Sea Dogs career.

The rookie netminder made 29 stops in total with several of them being solid scoring chances for the Eagles. It was nice to see a strong performance from him after struggling last week in Bathurst.

Auger was named first star for his efforts and improved to 6-1-0-1 on the year.

LEAVING: Seemed like people started to leave a lot earlier than usual last night – even with the Eagles being down by just two with two minutes to go. We just don’t get it.

QUICK HITS: Ryan Tesink and Nathan Beaulieu each had two assists… Kevin Gagne had a Sea Dogs high six shots… Danick Gauthier and Grant West both recorded three hits… the attendance was 3,678… Saint John Airport handed out name tag/address things at the door.

HIGHLIGHTS: Here are the SeaDogsTV highlights.


NEXT GAME: The Sea Dogs hit the road and travel to Moncton for Game Two of the 2011 Brunswick News Rivalry Cup on Tuesday. Game time at the Moncton Coliseum is 7pm.
