Danick Paquette

Danick Paquette.

Plays RW for the Lewiston Maineacs of the Q. Nice size: six-footer, 209 pounds. Turns 18 next month.

I heard Paquette talked up on CKAC as someone the Canadiens should think about in the draft next week.

He was Lewiston's first choice, 11th overall in the 2006 Q draft.

Paquette scored 29 goals, added 13 assists and was plus-8 this season. Here's the stat that caught my eye: 213 PiM.

A tough kid.

Could use a few of those.
