I like Hamilton but sometimes the love affair with some players is mind boggling. IF you can replace him for 60% of his AAV with a similar player, don't sit here and tell me the Flames are going to keep him around cause he's a "good kid"...

Absolutely. The problem here is that there are no "similar players" who are making only 60% of Hamilton's AAV. His is a contract for a really good player to grow into, and I am fairly confident that he will.
