News & Notes From Saturday's Game

Some stuff from last night’s game…

• Adam Erne scored on Quebec’s first shot of the game at 7:07 of the first to open the scoring. He added another goal just 10 seconds into the second. He finished the night with two goals, an assist, and four shots.
• Nick Sorensen had a good night as well, assisting on both of Erne’s goals and scoring his own in the third period.
• Fairly evenly played game. Francois Brassard made some nice stops throughout the game in the Quebec net.
• Noah Zilbert had Saint John’s only goal, scoring with one minute remaining in the game.
• Zilbert’s goal was the Sea Dogs’ first goal in some time. They hadn’t scored since the first period of last Sunday’s game against Bathurst, a stretch of seven periods.
• Definitely not a spectacular night for either team’s offense. Dangerous shots were only 9-5 in favour of Saint John. Neither team had much going on on the power play, either.
• This was the final meeting of the season between the two. Quebec won both games
• Sea Dogs scratches were forwards Stephen Anderson (upper body), Joey Richard (shoulder), and Mackenzie Brown (healthy) along with defensemen Michael Abbott (hand) and Alexander McQuaid (healthy).

NOTES: A kids choir performed the anthem… one of the linesman took a decent hit in the first period… Matthew Highmore had seven shots… Olivier LeBlanc, playing in his hometown, had five hits… Nicolas Hebert had a few quality scoring chances in this one… Spencer Smallman took two minor penalties… Nick Sorensen had seven shots… Adam Chapman had four hits... Mikhail Grigorenko didn’t play and may never play.

NEXT GAME: The Sea Dogs take on Ryan Tesink and the Blainville-Boisbriand Armada today at 5pm.
