The host Saint John Sea Dogs – featuring a pair of Calgary Flames prospects – were back in action on Wednesday night at the Memorial Cup. This time, they faced the Edmonton Oil Kings, who were coming off a loss on Tuesday night against Shawinigan. The Sea Dogs were good, the Oil Kings were desperate, and the result was a really entertaining 4-3 overtime victory for Edmonton.
Edmonton got out to an early lead, with a pair of goals in the first five minutes of the first period. Saint John rallied back, scoring three goals of their own in the next five minutes of the first period.
