The Sea Dogs had strung together some solid performances ahead of Wednesday's match with the Drummondville Voltigeurs. But it wasn't a pretty showing in a 6-1 loss, a defeat the Sea Dogs will no doubt try and improve upon tonight.
This is just the third meeting of the season between the Sea Dogs and Islanders, who each have 29 points and are fairly close in most statistical categories.
Game time tonight is 7:30 p.m. at Eastlink Centre.
