The Saint John Sea Dogs going through a dizzying trade period with a lot of activity.
President Wayne Long tells CHSJ News it’s important for the team to look to the future and the team has some great players that other teams were looking for.
He says it’s tough for the team to say to goodbye to players like Ryan Tesink, Aidan Kelly, Stephen MacAulay and Kevin Gagne but it’s necessary for them to reinvigorate and restock the franchise for years to come.
Today is the last day of the trading period and the Dogs announcing the acquisition of forward Brett Malone of Miramichi from the Shawinigan Cataractes.
In return, the Sea Dogs send a 10th-round selection next year’s Q league entry draft.
Malone was originally selected in the third round of the 2010 Q league draft by Moncton.
