Mélodie Daoust (born January 7, 1992) is a women's ice hockey player from Canada. She has competed for Hockey Canada in numerous international tournaments, most recently the 2014 Winter Olympics.
In 2008–09, she played with the Lac St. Louis Selects, and helped them accumulate a 62–0–2 record. Daoust was a Montreal Canadiens scholarship holder in 2010 from the Quebec Foundation for Athletic Excellence. With the Collège Édouard-Montpetit Lynx, she helped lead them to a Quebec collegiate championship in 2009–10. In addition, she won the league scoring title with 24 goals, 31 assists for 55 total points. She accomplished this in only 13 games played.
In participating with the Canada women's national under-18 ice hockey team, Daoust registered 10 goals and 23 points in 13 games. At the 2010 IIHF world U-18 championships, she scored a goal and adding an assist in the gold medal game. The following day, she flew back to Montreal to help the Lynx capture the collegiate championship. She scored twice and added an assist in the championship game, including the game-winner in a 6–5 win versus Dragons du Collège Laflèche. She had helped the Lynx accumulate a won-loss record of 44 wins, compared to 3 losses.
She was called up as an emergency fill-in with the Montreal Stars, and scored three points in her CWHL debut on January 8 (versus the Burlington Barracudas).
On February 10, 2011, Daoust signed a letter of intent to play for the McGill Martlets women's ice hockey program. She refused offers from numerous Canadian and American universities, including Cornell, Dartmouth and a full scholarship from Boston University. Daoust was only one of five female student-athletes committed to McGill University in the fall of 2011 that were athletic scholarship recipients (announced by the Quebec Foundation for Athletic Excellence).
