Four Dogs crack latest CSS rankings

SAINT JOHN - Four members of the Saint John Sea Dogs cracked NHL Central Scouting's midterm rankings for the 2020 NHL Draft.

Defenseman Jeremie Poirier was the highest ranked Sea Dog, coming in at No. 16 amongst North American skaters. Poirier has been projected to be a mid to late first round pick by most scouting publications all season long.

The other Sea Dogs to be make the rankings were defenseman William Villeneuve (No. 108), defenseman Charlie DesRoches (No. 169) and forward Brady Burns (No. 188).

Poirier will be the only Sea Dog taking part in Thursday's CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game in Hamilton. That game can be seen on Sportsnet.

Rimouski Oceanic forward Alexis Lafreniere was, unsurprisingly, the top ranked North American skater.
