Saint John Sea Dogs News Release
SAINT JOHN, NB --- Saint John Sea Dogs Head Coach/General Manager Jacques Beaulieu announced today that second-year defenseman Scott McDonald has been traded to the Halifax Mooseheads in exchange for an eighth round selection at the 2010 QMJHL Entry Draft. Should McDonald play a single game for Halifax during the 2008-2009 season, the pick will automatically be upgraded to a sixth rounder.
Originally drafted in the seventh round (109th overall) of the 2007 QMJHL Entry Draft, McDonald appeared in 21 games for the Sea Dogs last season, registering 0G-1A-1P-7PIM in addition to an even +/- rating. The 18-year old native of Waverly, NS played his midget hockey with the Dartmouth Subways, a team which featured current Sea Dogs forward Steven Anthony and which won a provincial championship in 2007.
Saint John opens the fourth training camp in franchise history tomorrow morning at 9:00am at Harbour Station. The first of two intra-squad contests will be played at 2:30pm on Friday afternoon, with the second to take place on Saturday, also at 2:30pm.
The Sea Dogs will skate in two home pre-season contests this year: Monday, September 1 at 7:00pm versus P.E.I. and Saturday, September 6 at 7:30pm versus Acadie-Bathrust. Tickets to both games are on sale now at the Harbour Station Box Office (657-1234). Regular Season single-game tickets will go on sale to the general public on Saturday, September 6 at 10:00am.
