Inside the Devils’ Bold Dougie Hamilton Trade Plan That Could Shake Up the NHL</assistant
Dave Pagnotta: “Yeah? Well, I mean, so the conversations continue with New Jersey. They’re trying to make this happen. They’re going to have to retain on that contract, or take back money. Like significant money. Like this isn’t a scenario where New Jersey is going to free themselves up of the full $9 million, but they’re trying to see how much cap space they can create, and how can they make a deal that benefits them?
Because they just don’t want to get rid of Dougie Hamilton. This isn’t a scenario where this guy is complete junk and he’s having a bad season, but they just don’t want to deal with him anymore. There’s still value in this player. He’s still a second pair top four type, right D kind of guy, and there’s value there.
