Three Dogs make NHL Central Scouting list

Michael Hawkins/Saint John Sea Dogs
Three Saint John Sea Dogs cracked NHL Central Scouting's "Players to Watch" list for the 2021 NHL Draft.

Forwards Joshua Roy and Peter Reynolds were awarded 'B' ratings, indicating a second- or third-round candidate. Forward Cam MacDonald, meanwhile, was given a 'C' ratting, meaning a fourth-, fifth- or sixth-round candidate.

Roy currently leads the Sea Dogs in scoring with four goals and six points in six games. Reynolds has registered two goals and two assists in his first QMJHL season while MacDonald has one helper.

Two Sea Dogs draft picks also made the list. Forward Fyodor Svechkov, who the Sea Dogs selected in the first-round of this year's CHL Import Draft (but remains a long shot to report), was given an 'A' rating, indicating a first-round pick. Svechkov is currently playing in Russia.

Defenseman Guillaume Richard, a fourth-round pick of the Dogs in this year's QMJHL Entry Draft, was given a 'B' rating. Richard, a University of Maine commit, is currently playing with the USHL's Tri-City Storm.

Only three current QMJHL players - Rimouski's Zachary Bolduc, Halifax's Zachary L'Heureux and Shawinigan's Xavier Bourgault - were given 'A' ratings.
