The 2025-26 regular season comes to an end today as the Cape Breton Eagles will look to win the season series against the Saint John Sea Dogs.

The Eagles took the first of the weekend set, posting a 4-2 win on Friday night. Lucas Romeo paced with the Eagles attack with two goals while Aiden McCullough chipped in three assists from the backend. It was a huge night for Eagles goaltender Félix Hamel stopped 35 of 37 shots in the win.

Today will be a special occasion for Romeo, Hamel, and team captain Lewis Gendron, as tonight the Eagles will honour their three 20-year-old players before the game. One of the players on the opposing bench, Angelo Fullerton, will be finishing his regular season QMJHL career in the place where it started, as the Sea Dogs forward spent the first three years of his QMJHL career in Cape Breton with the Eagles.
