Playing career

Rimouski Océanic

Caron played for the Athol Murray College of Notre Dame in 2005-2006 prior to being drafted by the Rimouski Océanic in the first round, eighth overall in the 2006 QMJHL Draft. In his rookie season with the team, Caron finished fifth in team scoring, earning 40 points in 58 games, and led Rimouski with a +11 rating.

In his second year in Rimouski, Caron would miss some time due to injuries, appearing in only 46 games, however, he would improve on his point total from the previous year, scoring 20 goals and adding 23 assists for 43 points, helping the Océanic make the playoffs. Caron added four points in nine post-season games.

In 2008-09, Caron would once again improve with his numbers, appearing in 56 games, scoring a team high 36 goals, while earning 67 points, third highest on the club. In the playoffs, Caron earned 11 points in 13 games. Since Rimouski was hosting the 2009 Memorial Cup, the team had an automatic berth in the tournament. In four games, Caron scored two goals, as Rimouski was eliminated after losing to the Windsor Spitfires in the tie-breaking game.

Rouyn-Noranda Huskies

At the trade deadline of the 2009-10 season Caron was traded along with teammate Patrice Cormier to the Rouyn-Noranda Huskies.

International play
