Only two games are on the schedule and one of them will feature the Saint John Sea Dogs taking on the Acadie-Bathurst Titan in Laméque, NB. Puck drop is scheduled for 4 p.m.
This is the fourth meeting of the pre-season between the two squads. Bathurst won the first two while Saint John won the third, a wild 8-6 victory last Sunday in Fredericton.
With this being the final game of the pre-season, we'll likely see some lines and combinations that will start the regular season together. Both teams will be missing a few regulars due to NHL rookie camps, however.
