Sea Dogs poised to pick first overall

QUEBEC CITY - It appears as though the Saint John Sea Dogs will in fact be taking to the stage first at Saturday's Quebec Major Junior Hockey League Entry Draft.

There had been reports and mild conversations that the Sea Dogs were listening to offers for the first overall pick, but with less than 24 hours until draft time, it looks like Saint John will use the pick.
Forwards Joshua Roy and Justin Robidas are projected to go first and second overall, respectively. The order they go in is up for debate, but it seems Roy has the edge right now.

There's also an outside chance the Dogs could take Fredericton's Peter Reynolds - ranked third by QMJHL Central Scouting - first overall. The left shooting forward played at Shattuck St. Mary's last season and has already committed to Boston College for 2022.

The 2019 QMJHL Entry Draft begins at 11 a.m. at Videotron Centre and can be seen live on TVA Sports.
