It's January 12th. Here's your San Jose Sharks news in two minutes. Subscribe to stay locked in all season. NHL insider Elliott Friedman dropped a bomb show on Sportsnet's Saturday headlines.
What trade did Dougie Hamilton block and why?
He revealed that New Jersey Devils defenseman Dougie Hamilton blocked a trade to the San Jose Sharks last offseason. The Sharks made a run at the big defenseman, but Hamilton said no thanks. The Sharks were on a mission to rebuild their blue line, and Hamilton fit the bill perfectly.
Even without him, they loaded up with talent like John Klingberg, Dmitry Orlov, and Nick Letty. Those moves paid off big time. Hamilton's having a rough year in New Jersey. In 40 games, he's got just five goals and five assists, plus a minus-seven rating.
That's way below his usual standards, and fans are wondering if a fresh start could spark a turnaround. Now the Sharks are one of the most exciting teams in the league to watch. Friedman even hinted that, with their hot streak, Hamilton might rethink blocking a deal if it comes up again. A change of scenery could be just what Hamilton needs, especially with San Jose clicking on defense. Keep an eye on this one as the trade deadline approaches.
