FINAL: Cape Breton 1, Saint John 8
SAINT JOHN – Charlie Coyle put on quite an encore
performance on Saturday night at Harbour Station.
After scoring three goals and adding six assists in the
Saint John Sea Dogs’ 13-4 victory over the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles on
Friday night, Coyle led the Dogs to an 8-1 win in Game 2 on Saturday by registering
another hat trick to go along with two assists.
The Minnesota Wild prospect now has six goals and five
assists in two playoff games, leading Saint John to a 2-0 series lead in their
best-of-seven first round series against Cape Breton.
Not surprisingly, the Sea Dogs dominated this game and
outshot the Eagles 47-16. Saint John’s biggest offensive outburst came in the
second period once again where they scored four times. They would also added three makers in
the first and one in the third.
Stephen MacAulay scored twice while singles came
from Zack Phillips, Nathan Beaulieu, and Stanislav Galiev. Mathieu Corbeil made
15 saves for the win.
The line of Coyle, Phillips, and Galiev had a huge game,
combining for five goals and nine assists. Phillips had three helpers while
Galiev had four.
Cape Breton’s lone goal came from William Carrier late in
the third period. Philippe Trudeau allowed eight goals on 47 shots.
Not much else to say. The Sea Dogs have outscored Cape
Breton 21-5 in the first two games. Yikes.
Game 3 is Tuesday night in Sydney. Should be a blast.

DeleteI will be in Sydney cheering on the Sea Dogs on Tuesday and Wednesday night!
ReplyDeleteI've dubbed Charlie Coyle, Captain America, he gave one of the opposing players a push without even looking at him (to keep his distance) the guy literally flew about 5 feet sideways...with not so much as even an expression of effort on Coyle's face... I'm not exagerating...it was like he was shooing a fly...
