Then you realize Dougie is still 3 years younger than Brodie. And defencemen age like fine cheese...

Reggie didn't have that mean streak at 21.....Sutter came and injected him with Sutter venom in '03.
I still remember being at the Leafs game that year and watching Regher absolutely abuse Owen Nolan until he ended up jumping Reg. Was thinking "where did that come from?" and it never went away.
So Hamilton has 2 years to develop some grrrr.
