DRUMMONDVILLE, Que. – The road trip continues tonight for
the Saint John Sea Dogs.
Coming off an 8-4 victory over the Phoenix in Sherbrooke
last night, the Sea Dogs are in Drummondville tonight to battle the Voltigeurs.
Puck drop is scheduled for 8pm at the Marcel Dionne Centre.
A solid second period propelled the Sea Dogs to a win
over the expansion Phoenix last night. Stephen MacAulay had a big night,
registering his second hat trick of the season. Devon Oliver-Dares also a good
night offensively, recording two goals in the first period.
With a four assist performance last night, Jonathan

overall in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League.
The Sea Dogs’ attention now shifts to the Volts who sit
fourth in the Telus West Division and 14th overall in the league
with a 9-10-0-0 record. Drummondville, like Saint John, is 5-5-0-0 in their
last 10 games.
