Four Years Ago

It was four years ago tonight that Simon Despres scored shorthanded, Zack Phillips netted the game-winner, Jonathan Huberdeau secured the victory and Jacob DeSerres had the game of his life in the Saint John net.

It’s hard to believe it has been four years since the Sea Dogs’ 3-1 win over the Mississauga St. Michael’s Majors, clinching the first Memorial Cup title for Atlantic Canada.

In 2010-11, the Sea Dogs went a ridiculous 58-7-1-2 in the regular season, 16-3 in the playoffs and 3-0-1 at the Memorial Cup. Fun times were had – and hopefully those fun times are nearing a return.
