“One player who hasn’t shown up on a trade board is Dougie Hamilton. It’s not that I expect him to, but he has been a semi-popular trade candidate among fans on social media. There will come a time when the Devils will have to move his contract, but doing it this offseason would be a mistake.” [Devils on the Rush]
