History
2006-07: In his fifth season with the Kitchener Rangers of the OHL, Duco recorded career highs in all major statistical categories. He finished the season with 32 goals and 22 assists for 54 points, posted a +/- rating of +26, and was seventh in the league in penalty minutes with 173 including seven fighting majors. Duco went undrafted by an NHL team. He was signed by the Florida Panthers after attending training camp in October on a tryout basis.
2007-08: Duco was given a great deal of opportunity under Peter DeBoer, and answered the call. The feisty Duco scored a career-best 32 goals and 22 assists on the OHL champions, the Kitchener Rangers.
Talent Analysis
Duco plays an in-your-face, aggressive style of play. He always finishes his checks well, and willingly drops the gloves, while still contributing ably on the scoresheet.
Future
Duco has the potential to become an effective 3rd/4th line agitator in the NHL. He should be joining the Rochester Americans next season.
