RIMOUSKI, Que. - The Saint John Sea Dogs will avoid the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League's leading scorer tonight.

The QMJHL announced on Tuesday that Alexis Lafreniere has been suspended three games for a check to the head in Sunday's Oceanic win over the Quebec Remparts.
Lafreniere will begin serving the three-game suspension tonight when the Sea Dogs take on the Oceanic at 8:30 p.m.

This is the second and final meeting of the regular season between the two clubs. On Halloween night, Lafreniere recorded four assists in the Oceanic's 6-1 win over the Sea Dogs at TD Station.

Nicolas Guay, meanwhile, is questionable for tonight's game due to injury, reports le Journal de Quebec. Guay, the former Sea Dogs captain, missed Sunday's game.
