Why is Bourdon generally rated ahead of Paquet? How would you compare their strengths and weaknesses?
I have seen both, and i think Paquet is better. More intelligent with the puck. Awesome skater.La-La-Laprise said:Bourdon is better that's why.
He is farther along in his developoment, he has better hockey sense and is a far better skater. Not to mention he is more physical.
well i have never seen thoses nights.X-SHARKIE said:Bourdon is going to be an anchor kind of a defenseman who well log alot of ice time and be very valuable for teams night in night out, were as Paquet IMO well be more of a race horse hockey kind of a player and some nights well hurt your team with costly errors or weak plays, yet well bang home some game winners and make beuty plays on the PP with his excellent skill.

He is by far the Best defencemen of the Cataractes
*off topic* I have never seen in the junior .. for the 8 last years .. a guy that intimidate more the opposing team than Marty Doyle. I mean ... wow, even Bonneau tonight never wanted to get close to him. When he is on the ice nobody want to check him... that's hilarious sometimes
While i dont agree on the defencive play on Paquet (always saw him as a defensive defensemen) i think he is mid-late first round material like you said. Bourdon will be picked before him because of his size. (Bourdon look bigger on the ice, heavier too.. which is good for a defensemen)X-SHARKIE said:True he is youre best defenseman there, but I see some things he needs to work on defensively before he makes the jump to the NHL, were Bourdon is more mature for this age. Paquet has more raw skill and potential to be an NHL QB but he'll need to work on his defensive game, an area that he is improving and well continue to improve.
I expect both defenseman to be gone by 20th overall in 2005.
