another 8 equivalent games from Hamilton and the Flames are out of the 2015-16 playoffs.
Chances are that Hamilton's ice time get cut to less than 15 when Brodie returns. Hartley has seen the same thing as I (and anyone watching the games) and Hamilton , not Russell or Wideman is the guy losing ice time.
Why did Boston not sign him for basically the money and term that he got from the Flames??
They would have had the best evaluations of his abilities and were not going to sign him. They decided they would rather sign Krug on a 3.4M 1 year deal than Hamilton long term. Ie it wasn't because they couldn't find cap space.
