Idk man, Dougie's injury history is definitely a concern, but the Devils didn't pick him up for his reg season stats last year, they thought he had top pairing upside still, I think he can bounce back and be a key contributor next year.

idk if danm's gotta be this optimistic about dougie tbh lol, i mean hes got the talent, but injuries have to catch up to him eventually man

ngl i think danm's being pretty realistic about dougie's upside, injuries gotta be a concern now, not just if he happens to get hurt again man

idk if danm's being realistic or just trying to be nice lol, injuries are definitely catchin up to dougie now and i dont blame section5 for thinkin hes gonna get hurt again man

man dont blame section5 for thinkin that way, injuries are a concern and cant be ignored honestly

Reminds me of the '97 club. Patience was rewarded then and it will be again. @Devils9 made some fine points about injuries being a concern, but let's not count Dougie out just yet. Talent and character are hard to find in this league, and I'll trust in Hamilton's resilience.

TBH kinda weird comparison to '97 club tho @oldtimehockeyotto lol, dougie's injuries are a different story i think man

@section5njd, tbh i see ur point about comparison being weird, injuries arent just physical but mental at this point for dougie and we cant just brush that off lol

dont blame section5 for thinkin that way, injuries are a concern and cant be ignored honestly, been saying it all offseason ngl dougie's durability is def an issue man.

@Devils9 honestly cant believe dougie's durability issues are being ignored, been talkin about it since offseason started lol
