The move will bolster the Sea Dogs lineup as they prepare to host the 2022 Memorial Cup. It will give Francis a chance to play for the national major junior hockey championship in his final year of eligibility.
Francis played in four games with the Heat
He is expected to join the Sea Dogs after this weekend of play.
