Dougie Hamilton Grabs Goal-Scoring Lead Among Defensemen
7 years agoCalgary Flames defenseman Dougie Hamilton netted his 16th goal of the campaign in Monday's 5-2 loss to Arizona, which makes him the highest scoring blue liner in the league, with P.K. Subban, Alex Pietrangelo and Aaron Ekblad behind him on 15 goals. Hamilton also recorded an assist on Sean Monahan's 31st goal of the year. Sitting on 43 points, Hamilton is closing in on his career-high 50 points set in 2016-17. Posting a new personal best would be very impressive, as just 12 of Hamilton's points have come on the power play. He was stuck on the second unit for a good chunk of the season and was bumped up only last month.
