The team announced this afternoon that they have recalled
17-year old goaltender Christopher Smith from the St. John's Privateers of the
Newfoundland & Labrador Major Midget Hockey League.
Smith, a fifth-round pick by Saint John in the 2013 QMJHL
Entry Draft, had a 1-11 record and a 5.29 goals against average in 14 games with the league’s worst team. St. John’s finished the regular season with
a 5-18-0-1 record.
In 2012-13, Smith went 9-4 with a 2.76 GAA.
According to the release, the 6-1 and 165 lbs. netminder is
expected to be in uniform this Friday when the Sea Dogs begin a three-in-three
against the Rimouski Oceanic at Harbour Station.
Regular backup Antoine Landry remains out with a lower
body injury. Chase Gaudet, who was Sea Dogs backup on this past weekend’s road
trip and made 41 saves in a 6-1 loss in Rouyn-Noranda on Saturday, has been
sent back to the Maritime Junior 'A' Hockey League’s Yarmouth Mariners.
