Sea Dogs players heading home

SAINT JOHN - Saint John Sea Dogs players are returning home.

A day after it was announced that the 2019-20 season had been paused, the Sea Dogs informed staff and families today that the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League has given the green light for players to return home - including players from outside the country. The team is telling players to pack their belongings as if the season were over - even though play could resume at some point this spring.

With the NBA and other leagues announcing that they will not return to action for at least 30 days, it seems more and more likely that the Sea Dogs may have played their final game of the 2019-20 season. Hopefully that isn't the case, but it's a strong possibility at this point.

The Canadian Junior Hockey League, which falls under the Hockey Canada umbrella, announced today that they will not resume play this season. U Sports' University Cup tournament was cancelled following Thursday night's game.

The Canadian Hockey League, meanwhile, released the following statement about May's Memorial Cup tournament.
The Sea Dogs released some ticketing information today. The team's office at TD Station will also remain closed until further notice.
