October 25, 2024 – Road Game @ Sherbrooke Phœnix
The Saint John Sea Dogs begin their three-game road trip against the Sherbrooke Phœnix, who hold a strong 7-4-0-0 record and an unbeaten 6-0-0-0 home record. Sherbrooke’s offense, led by Olivier Lampron (3G, 5A) and Thomas Rousseau (2G, 6A), will test the Sea Dogs' defense. With Ben Amyot back in the lineup, Saint John's blue line gets a boost in experience and stability.
Offensively, Saint John is firing on all cylinders. The dynamic duo of Nate Tivey (3G, 14A) and Tyler Peddle (6G, 4A) continues to lead the way for the Sea Dogs, providing key scoring and playmaking. In addition, Elliot Dubé (5G, 4A) and Ben Cross (2G, 6A) add valuable depth, making Saint John a threat across multiple lines. The recent acquisition of Zachery Morin offers even more offensive upside, while Eriks Mateiko has started to produce consistently.
Goaltending will be split during the road trip, and Robinson is expected to start this game. He will need a stellar performance against a Sherbrooke team that has scored 32 goals in 11 games. Special teams could play a big role, with Saint John’s power play sitting at 31.25% on the road and Sherbrooke’s home penalty kill at 82.4%.
October 26, 2024 – Road Game @ Drummondville Voltigeurs
The Sea Dogs face their toughest challenge of the road trip when they take on the top-ranked Drummondville Voltigeurs. Drummondville boasts a 9-2-0-1 record, powered by offensive stars like Sam Oliver (11G, 2A) and playmaker Luke Woodworth (18A). Drummondville’s power play is one of the league’s best at 30.23%, meaning the Sea Dogs' penalty kill will need to be sharp, especially away from home.
Saint John’s top scorers, Nate Tivey and Tyler Peddle, will once again be relied upon to create offensive opportunities, while Zachery Morin and the steadily improving Eriks Mateiko will need to contribute against a stingy Drummondville defense. The "Young Guns," William Yared and Dylan Rozzi, have been developing with each game, providing the depth that Saint John needs in this matchup.
Olivier Groulx will continue to be a key player with his steady offensive and defensive contributions, while Ben Amyot's return strengthens the blue line further. With back-to-back games, Gravel is likely to get the nod in goal, and he will need to be at his best to keep Saint John in the game.
Drummondville is one of the top teams in the league, so a disciplined effort, strong goaltending, with offensive and defensive contributions from all lines will be necessary for the Sea Dogs to come out with a win.
October 27, 2024 – Road Game @ Gatineau Olympiques
The Sea Dogs finish their road trip against the struggling Gatineau Olympiques, who have a 2-10-0-0 record. Gatineau’s defense has been leaky, allowing 52 goals in 12 games, and their special teams have been inconsistent, with a 72.97% penalty kill. This game presents a great opportunity for the Sea Dogs to close the trip with a win.
The Sea Dogs’ road power play, operating at 31.25%, should take advantage of Gatineau’s defensive struggles.
With Charles-Édward Gravel likely back in net, the Sea Dogs will aim to lock down the game defensively and use their offensive depth to exploit Gatineau’s weaknesses. This game presents a prime chance for Saint John to grab valuable points and finish the trip on a high note.
Overall Road Trip Outlook
The Saint John Sea Dogs face a critical three-game road trip with a mix of tough opponents and opportunities to gain valuable points. Against Sherbrooke and Drummondville, the Sea Dogs will need to rely on their top scorers—Nate Tivey, Tyler Peddle, Elliot Dubé, and Ben Cross—to generate offense, while Zachery Morin and Eriks Mateiko offer additional firepower. The "Young Guns" William Yared and Dylan Rozzi continue to develop and will be key in providing depth scoring.
With both Charles-Édward Gravel and Justin Robinson expected to split goaltending duties, the Sea Dogs should have solid performances in net throughout the trip. The return of Ben Amyot and Egan Beveridge brings stability and energy, while Olivier Groulx’s steady play on both ends of the ice remains crucial.
Special teams will likely play a significant role, especially against Sherbrooke’s dangerous power play and Drummondville’s all-around excellence. This road trip offers a great opportunity for Saint John to build momentum and continue climbing the standings.
