Maybe you should have posted this idea 2 weeks ago. Hamilton has been improving his play as he becomes more comfortable in Calgary's system. The past week he has been Calgary's 2nd best defenseman behind Brodie.
Really though, 17 games into the season is the perfect time to say a trade involving young players who will/should be around for many years is the best time to evaluate the trade.
I still say the Flames outright robbed the Bruins on this trade, but I have patience.
If Hamilton was a 32 year old star defenceman and the Flames picked him up at the deadline... then I'd be up in arms about the trade too.
