Sea Dogs to play in Port Hawkesbury

The Saint John Sea Dogs will visit Port Hawkesbury this September.

The Cape Breton Eagles announced Monday that they'll host the Sea Dogs in a pre-season game on Friday, Sept. 6 at the Port Hawkesbury Civic Centre. Tickets go on sale this Friday.
Going to Port Hawkesbury for a pre-season game is certainly a trek for the Sea Dogs – but it's at least a shorter drive than going all the way to Sydney. It's a nearly five hour drive from TD Station to the Port Hawkesbury Civic Centre compared to six-and-a-half hours to Centre 200.

This will be the Sea Dogs' first time playing in the Civic Centre, which has 1,000 seats for hockey, according to the venue's website

This will presumably be Saint John's first pre-season game after Labour Day, when the team should have its final roster mostly set.

The full QMJHL pre-season schedule should be released soon. Saint John played three games at TD Station during last year's pre-season and another three on the road, visiting the Pownal Sports Centre (PEI), Centre Culturel de Saint-Quentin and UPEI's Bell Aliant Centre.
