Last night in a junior game between the Saint John Sea Dogs and the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles, things took a turn for the worst when a Sea Dogs coach collapsed on the bench. The game was cancelled immediately and medical personnel rushed onto the scene.
This is what we know. At 19:06 of the third period, something happened behind the Saint John Sea Dogs bench. We don't know what happened or who it is. The person has been taken off the bench on a stretcher. The game has been called off with Cape Breton leading 6-0.
There has yet to be any additional information regarding the incident but our thoughts and prayers are with all those affected by the situation.
