History

2007-08: After spending the bulk of his rookie season playing as an energy-line forward, Paquette began to display his more offensive side in his sophomore season. Playing regularly on Lewiston’s scoring lines, Paquette exploded for 29 goals. Paquette relished his increased role, bringing an energetic game to the ice every night. Still, from time to time his decision-making in regards to his physical play put him in hot water, as he occasionally went over the line with borderline hits. He will have to work on his discipline if he is to make it at the next level, but will have to do so without neglecting that antagonism which has made him an effective player.

Talent Analysis

Paquette is a perfect example of a player that teams love to have on their own side, but hate to play against. Perhaps the only thing more agitating than his gritty style of play is the fact he also has the ability to bury the puck and make the opposition pay for their mistakes and indiscretions. A burly forward, Paquette’s game is raw and his discipline is sometimes lacking. He drives the net with fervor, but his skating needs work.
