This is why it would be dumb to trade Hamilton.
Hamilton should have more trade value than Domi. However, that kind of seems silly on paper.
Domi for Hamilton would probably make the Flames worse. Defensemen (especially top 4) are much more important, and they're much harder to acquire.
That is true in theory. But i dont see Hamilton as a top 4 dman at the moment. More like a sheltered top 6 pp specialist whose bad defensivly which is true. If we trade domi for Hamilton we instantly become a better team easily. Still dont see how people think Hamilton is a solid top 4 dman after watching him for 2 years. I guess people dont want to come to terms with reality and will just see what they want to see
