After a slow start to the season, the Devils are looking to move defenceman Dougie Hamilton and the Leafs could be the perfect option.
Dougie Hamilton has been a name that has surfaced in trade rumours as of late. According to Kevin Weekes, the New Jersey Devils have discussed moving on from the Toronto product. Hamilton is in the fifth year of his seven-year contract, making $9M per season. Hamilton recently suffered an injury and will be out for a week with a lower-body injury he suffered in a 4-3 overtime win against the Montreal Canadiens last Thursday.
