• In 16 playoff games with Rimouski in 2009, Caron finished second on the team in goals (6) and fourth in points (11). Despite the semi-final loss to Drummondville, Rimouski’s season wasn’t over as they hosted the 2009 Memorial Cup.
• His 36 goals this season ranked first on his team and tied him for 11th overall in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League.

• He began skating at the age of three in his hometown of Sayabec, Quebec.
