Dougie Hamilton News
New Jersey Devils defenseman Dougie Hamilton (pectoral) said he could perhaps have made it back to the lineup for the postseason, but the club was unable to qualify for the playoffs. The blue-liner has missed the past 62 games of the regular season due to a torn left pectoral muscle suffered in a Dec. 1 contest and missed the remainder of the regular season. "I've been skating and stuff, so the plan was kind of to target playoffs," the blue-liner said. "But unfortunately we don't have that chance. It was hard not being out there with the guys, win or lose, going through it with them. It definitely makes you realize you can't take things for granted." The veteran's season will end with five goals and 16 points across 20 games for the under-performing Devils in the 2023-24 campaign.
New Jersey Devils defenseman Dougie Hamilton (Pectoral) moved to LTIR Thursday. The move doesn't come as a surprise, as Hamilton has been out since November 28 with a torn pectoral muscle and isn't expected to return until March at the earliest. Before the injury, Hamilton had 16 points (five goals, 11 assists) in 20 games. It is tough to roster him in leagues with limited IR space, but he is a great player to add in leagues where he is on the wire and IR spots aren't filled.
New Jersey Devils defense prospect Simon Nemec has been recalled from the Utica Comets of the AHL. The second pick of the 2022 NHL draft will likely make his debut at some point soon with Dougie Hamilton (upper body) going on IR Friday. The 19-year-old has looked the part in the AHL so far, posting eight points (two goals, six assists) in 13 games so far this season after collecting 34 points in 65 games last year. He will likely be given sheltered minutes to start his NHL career but could see second powerplay duties. Nemec should be rostered in all dynasty leagues.
New Jersey Devils defenseman Dougie Hamilton (upper body) will miss Thursday's clash with Philadelphia. He was injured in Tuesday's matchup against the Islanders and is still being evaluated. The 30-year-old exits the lineup having earned 16 points (five goals, 11 assists) in 20 games. Hamilton averages the most ice time among Devils skaters, so he'll be a big miss for the team. Brendan Smith is expected to take his spot next to Jonas Siegenthaler on Thursday.
