marcaractac 3,962 Report post Posted June 23, 2017 Getting Hamonic would be another s***ty "I just wanna make the playoffs" deal. And we still wouldn't make the playoffs anyway. 1 krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It just takes a simple search of his stats to understand he's not that good. He had one good season with 33 points in 14/15. Other than that, he's never broken 26 points and was a -21 last season. He also has never, not one time, played a full season. The only way this move makes sense is if we are moving Ericsson out and replacing him with Hamhock.

ChristopherReevesLegs 7,022 Report post Posted June 23, 2017 Yeah -21 when almost all their D-man are positive. Plays about 20 min a night and plays heavy PK minutes. Also blocks a lot of shots (not necessarily a good thing). He's like a RH Kyle Quincey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buppy 1,720 Report post Posted June 23, 2017 Funny, just two years everyone was saying Holland sucked for not trading for Hamonic. How times change. Kind of looking like his good year was a fluke, but on the other hand his regression (if that's what it really is) started at the same time he started asking for a trade. Maybe he needs a change of scenery. Two firsts is obviously a ridiculous price (would have been even two years ago), and that probably means Isles wouldn't accept anything reasonable, but I'd take him if they would.

I remember something Nelson said about just his presence on the bench/ice made everyone on the team 6 inches taller. Take it no one wanted to f*** with the guy?
