The poll results on the QMJHL website can be cruel
sometimes.
Some other Friday notes:
- The Sea Dogs’ five-game homestand ends this weekend with a matchup against the Baie-Comeau Drakkar on Saturday night and then a Sunday afternoon contest against the Acadie-Bathurst Titan. Following Sunday’s game, Saint John doesn’t play at home again until February 7th.
- Saint John is still two points back of the Sherbrooke Phoenix, who hold the QMJHL's final playoff spot, with a game in-hand. The Phoenix host Charlottetown tonight and the last-place Shawinigan Cataractes tomorrow.
- "Playing defense on a weak team isn't easy, but it is hard to duplicate the experience that he is gaining,” writes Hockey’s Future about Olivier LeBlanc.
- Cool article on CBC.ca about Eric Gelinas, who comes from a baseball family, playing hockey at Yankee Stadium this weekend. The New York Rangers take on Gelinas and the New Jersey Devils outdoors on Sunday.
- The Mill Rats attendance numbers are not good… yet are quite good in comparison to other NBL Canada teams.
- Lastly, Sea Dogs president Wayne Long is performing tonight at the Saint John Ale House. Show starts at 10pm.
