The season finale of "Rising Tide" has been released.
The series gives a behind the scenes look at the 2023-24 Saint John Sea Dogs, much like what many NHL teams have been producing in recent years.
Episode four begins with a focus on Matteo Mann and his return to Chicoutimi followed by Mathis Gauthier returning to Rimouski. The second half of the episode features general manager Anthony Stella explaining some trade deadline moves and what making the playoffs meant to the group.
The Reds took a 1-0 series lead in the best-of-three Atlantic University Sport men's hockey championship series against the Universite de Moncton Aigles Bleus with a 3-1 win on Saturday in Fredericton. The series now shifts to Moncton for Game 2 on Tuesday.
The Reds, who went 30-0 in the regular season and swept the Saint Mary's Huskies in their lone playoff series, feature former Saint John Sea Dogs Kale McCallum and Nick Blagden. The Reds are, of course, coached by Gardiner MacDougall, who led the Sea Dogs to the 2022 Memorial Cup championship.
UdeM finished second in the AUS standings but were 25 points back of UNB with a 16-11-3-0 record. They swept StFX in their lone playoff series. The Aigles Bleus feature former Sea Dogs forward Jeremie Jacob.
A Game 3, if needed, would be Thursday back at the Aitken Centre. Both teams have already qualified for the University Cup tournament in Toronto.

Wednesday, March 6 at Moncton
Friday, March 8 at Cape Breton
Saturday, March 9 at Cape Breton
And here's Quebec's. The back-to-back against Gatineau (23-30-4-4) is a big opportunity for the Remparts to pick up some points.
