SEA DOGS HOST TITAN - THIS AFTERNOON AT 4:00pm

The Saint John Sea Dogs and Acadie-Bathurst Titan meet for the seventh time this season this afternoon at Harbour Station.

Saint John is currently 4-2 versus Acadie-Bathurst, and has outscored their provincial rivals 29-18 over the course of their six head-to-head match-ups.

Sophomore defenseman Pascal Amyot has registered a highly-impressive rating of +12 against the Titan, while star centre Chris DiDomenico leads all Sea Dogs players with 11 points (4G-7A) versus Bathurst’s major junior squad in this season

On December 28, 2007, overage forward Alexandre Picard-Hooper set a team record for single-game scoring when he registered 1G-5A-6P during a 9-2 win for Saint John over Acadie-Bathurst at the K.C. Irving Regional Centre.

I don't know why you post the stats from earlyer in the year. This Titen team is not the one we faced after Christmas. They have blown out Halifax at home, Lewiston at home, and will be looking for revenge on our 9-2 game on their ice.

If the Dogs come out with respect for this team I think it will be a close (1 goal) win by the Dogs. If they think it's going to be easy again, people will be leaving early.

The Titan played already 3 games in the last 4 days and it will be the 3rd of a 3 in 3 tomorrow.

I don't expect them to be in top shape tomorrow after 2 very physical wins in Lewiston.

The Titan are on a roll since getting a new coach, but I think they'll be tired for this one.. hence Dogs win 4-1.

7-2 Dogs

You think he writes this stuff himself? ;D

Who cares they are just stating what's happened in previous games and the team isn't that much different the last time they played they had Paris and Graham an lost 7-2 at home it was the game before that they lost 9-2 also at home nothing wrong with simply stating the facts.

i think the score will be 6-3 seadogs

Well we have not exactly been showing a lot of endurance ourselves lately. JB basically rolled two lines on Friday and they looked wiped. Lets see what happens if he does the same today and see when the legs leave. If the Titan had easy wins then they could have been rolling all four lines. The Titan are very hot right now and this is not going to be a blow out by the Dogs and we will need a complete team effort just to stay close. 7 - 4 Titan.

[hounddog]

That's my point, The Titan have come together and been very hot. We have also seen what happenes when the Dogs think it is going to be an easy game. Even it the Titan are tired, they are a quality team, and if we have any laps ie firday night second period. They can still do some damage to us.
I still say this is going to be close.

[Superdog]

7-5 dogs

What's with people and this line stuff it seems to be said over and over do you guys seriously think the other teams don't do the same thing?

Watch today and see how much Perreault plays my guess if the game is close he plays alot same as Ouellet for CB & Voracek in Halifax it happens all the time it's not something completely unheard of in this league.

At this time of the year, it is time to get ready for the playoffs....in the playoffs you need 4 lines and depth up front.

Ummm of course they do but teams still double shift their players all the time even the mighty Tits!. Better watch the Titan cuz if they win today they are the favorites to win the Prez's Cup ;D

4th lines don't play that much in the playoffs either 2 scoring lines and a checking line for the most part.

I was only able to catch the last half of this game on the computer but what a lacklustre effort from them. Grant looked like he was skating in mud.

Yeah I know...They always look like that when they are being beat by a team that is playing 3 in 3 nights ;D
