David Bosson scored a pair of goals for Drummondville while William Dumont and Renaud Poulin added singles. Dayton Kitchener made 25 saves in the win.
Olivier Groulx netted Saint John's lone goal, which came in the first period and tied the game 1-1 at the time. The Volts took the lead just over five minutes later and they would maintain that lead until the final horn.
Justin Robinson made 40 saves in the loss. It's the second most shots he's faced in a game this season.
The Sea Dogs struggled to generate offense in this one, getting outshot 44-25 with only nine of those 25 shots being listed as dangerous. Saint John was outshot 20-6 and 13-7 in the second and third periods, respectively.
Saint John has scored two of fewer goals in each of their past three games, falling 4-2 to the Moncton Wildcats last Sunday and 3-0 to the Rimouski Oceanic on Thursday.
The Sea Dogs are now two games below .500 with a 7-9-1-0 record.
