The Hamilton thing for me is more than velocity. He has a better awareness of lanes than Wideman so there's less off the chin pads. Additionally, the biggest problem with the Flames powerplay this year is the players being too stationary, nobody is moving. Hamilton is always moving.

Man add in his physical play last night and Hamilton is becoming a complete stud back there.

He needs more first unit powerplay time though.
