the New Jersey Devils are pround to select,
from Niagra of the OHL, defenseman Dougie Hamilton.
if this happens will you be disappointed?
while he doesn't have the flashy name of Larsson, Murphy, or a forward like a Couturier or Huberdeau consider some things...
1. he's big for a kid his age, 6'3 195 lbs. and he's only going to get bigger
2. he was 4th in D scoring in OHL this year, only behind Ellis, Murphy, Mcfadden, of which Ellis was a first round pick 2 years ago, both him and Murphy are maybe thigh high, and Mcfadden, while not yet drafted is two years older than him
3. tries to style his game off of Jay Bouwmeester, and is largely considered the most fit player in the OHL
