" ... if they thought he was going to be a franchise, top pairing dman, something I'm not sure he'll ever develop into."

Being publicly called feels nice huh? See, everyone is wrong about players from time to time, no need to be an a-hole about it.

BTW, Hamilton is outscoring Ristolainen this year, and has a positive +/-, something Rasmus doesn't have.
Sorry I have no time for calgarybood. That poster is terrible and if he's gonna try and call me out then bring it.

As for Ristolainen vs Hamilton I still think the younger Ristolainen has a better chance of becoming a franchise dman. He's younger and more physical. Hamilton may have better offensive instincts but offense isn't the only thing I want from a dman.

I could be wrong on Hamilton but some people may be underrating Ristolainen if they haven't seen him much. Both great young dmen. I consider Rasmus to have about as big an upside as any young dman in the league. Should be interesting to watch his development, BUF has one of the best young cores in the league. So does Calgary for that matter.
