Hey not saying his defensive coaching game is perfect but he's doing the right thing with Hamilton. Easing his ice time to fifth and giving him the most sheltered minutes. Hamilton hasn't shown he deserves anything more ice time and certainly hasn't fought for more minutes.
He's got potential but let's not pretend he's been anything short of average to awful in his short tenure with the Flames. Calling him the second best d-man so far on the year is so out of reality. He's been 4th best at the very best and IMO him and Russell are pretty close this season with Wideman obviously being the worst of the bunch.
