A busy week awaits the Saint John Sea Dogs.

Following two games this weekend, the Sea Dogs will play four games in six nights beginning next Tuesday in Moncton. Here's a look at Saint John's schedule for next week, which was released on Wednesday by the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League.

Tuesday, March 30 at 7 p.m. at Moncton

Thursday, April 1 at 7 p.m. at Bathurst

Friday, April 2 at 7 p.m. vs Moncton

Sunday, April 4 at 3 p.m. vs Bathurst

The QMJHL has not released any dates for Maritimes Division games beyond April 4.

In a news release, the league said that "despite positive dialogue between the commissioner’s office and public health authorities from the three provinces, no authorization has been granted yet to allow games involving all six Maritimes-based teams."

The release added that "the QMJHL is confident to obtain the green light to schedule games between the six teams in the foreseeable future."

The Atlantic Bubble is (fingers crossed) scheduled to reopen on April 19. The league announced on Monday that the regular season will end on May 1 for the Maritimes Division.

The Sea Dogs have played 21 games up to this point which is still among the lowest totals in the league due to the late restart in New Brunswick.

Saint John will visit the Moncton Wildcats this Friday and host the Acadie-Bathurst Titan on Saturday.
