For the third time today, a Tampa Bay Lightning prospect was traded. This time it was Niagara IceDogs forward Christopher Paquette heading to the Peterborough Petes.
Chris was playing well with the IceDogs this season, scoring 12 goals and 17 assists in 37 games played. Paquette will help fill out a forward corps for the Petes that are looking to win the OHL Eastern Conference this season.
From the Petes:
“Chris is a strong two-way player who can contribute in both the offensive and defensive zones, in addition to adding work ethic and leadership to our roster,” commented (GM Michael) Oke.
