was able to slowly turn things around. Some hardship continued when the Screaming Eagles attempted to strengthen the club by drafting Ilya Kovalchuk 10th overall in the 2000 CHL Import Draft. Kovalchuk, however, declined to play. Despite the setback, Star goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury
is often credited as the one who landed the Screaming Eagles on the map and prevented them from folding. Along with star players Dominic Noel, Stuart MacRae, and Stephen Dixon
, the Screaming Eagles reached the league's conference final in 2002, only to lose in 5 games to Acadie-Bathurst Titan
. Fleury's #29 went on to be retired by the Screaming Eagles in 2008.
Vincent made a bold move and stacked the Screaming Eagles lineup with many NHL prospects for the 2003–04 season in hopes of bringing a league title to Cape Breton. Most of the players came from a notorious "boomerang" trade with the Halifax Mooseheads
. After the Screaming Eagles won 49 games and captured a division title, Fleury returned from the Pittsburgh Penguins
, leading many to think the team would be unstoppable in the playoffs. The Screaming Eagles lost in the second round to the Chicoutimi Saguenéens
.
Despite the embarrassment, President Greg Lynch opted not to fire Vincent. At the 2004 QMJHL draft, the Screaming Eagles chose James Sheppard
with the 1st overall pick. In 2006–07, along with star players Luc Bourdon
, Ondrej Pavelec
, and Oskars Bartulis
, Sheppard led the Screaming Eagles to the league semifinals, only to lose in 7 games to the Val-d'Or Foreurs
.
The 2007–08 season saw 16 year-old goaltender Olivier Roy
rise to prominence. The Screaming Eagles finished 4th in their division and won their first round playoff series despite having a roster that normally dressed at least ten rookies. Vincent went on to be named the 2008 QMJHL Coach of the Year. However, following the end of the season, Vincent violated the terms of his contract and became the head coach and general manager of the Montreal Junior Hockey Club
.
Following Vincent's departure, assistant coach Mario Durocher took over the role of head coach and general manager. In a bid to host the Memorial Cup
in 2012, Durocher in 2010 added former NHL players Mike McPhee
and Guy Chouinard
, former NHL coach Pierre Creamer
, and Michel Boucher to the hockey staff in consulting roles. Durocher was relieved of his duties effective immediately on April 12, 2011 after a lackluster season in which the team finished 16th in the league and last in the Atlantic Division with just 41 Points. With Cape Breton losing the Memorial Cup bid to host the 2012 MasterCard Memorial Cup and questions as to if the franchise could actually be a contender for 2012 arose as this would not make much sense as per the cycles of Junior Hockey.

Early years (1997–1999)
The Screaming Eagles' very first captain was Daniel Payette under coach Dany Dubé. They had very poor success in their first few seasons and often had difficulty earning respect around the league, with some players not wanting to come to Cape Breton or complaining while they were there. As enforcers were more common in the league at the time, the Screaming Eagles often made up for lack of skill by having an abundance of fighters.The Vincent era (1999–2008)
