Being drafted was the icing on the cake for Nicholas Paone this season.
The 16-year-old defenceman concentrated on his game for the Southern Tier Admirals and was prepared to let the chips fall where they may as far as anything else went.
“I didn’t really think about it too much throughout the year,” said Paone, a Grade 10 student at Saint Michael in Niagara Falls. “I just thought about playing my game and sticking to getting the wins for our team.
“Getting drafted was just the bonus on the year.”
Paone ended up having a solid season for the Admirals, finishing third in team scoring with six goals and 20 points.
“I thought I had a good year offensively and defensively and our team had a good year,” he said. “I think I improved on my skating and shot. Skating was a huge thing I worked on this year. You can always improve on your skating.”
Paone’s hard work and production did not go unnoticed as he was selected in the 12th round (233rd overall) by the Peterborough Petes in Saturday’s Ontario Priority Selection.
