The thing to focus on here is that we have Brodie as ouor #1 guy and then we have 5 #5 guys, ice time be damned.

I am admitting that Hartley is giving him every chance to step up and earn a spot in the top 4.
Not only is Hamilton 5th in TOI over the whole season he has been 5th in TOI in every single game since Brodie got back...
In his last 9 games there has not been 1 game where Hamilton has played well enough to earn more ice time than the top 4.
For crying out loud even Josh Jooris has had a couple games where he forced the coaches to play him top 6 minutes.
