It is true he varies between not great and a tire fire defensively. He is bailed out by Gio regularly. His possession stats are inflated by playing with Gio. It would be nice if people at least acknowledged that for many good things he does, he has his share of weaknesses as well.
He strikes me a little like Dion Phaneuf....very good offence, issues in his own zone, but Hamilton is a better human and teammate.
Not looking to trade him, but I also accept he will likely never be a number 1 D.
