Zach Hamill

I think this kid has been playing terrific this year!
I'll be the first to admit that I've been this guy's biggest critic the past few years but that should be expected when a top-10 draft pick takes YEARS to develop.

However, in his call up this year he's been giving it his all every night. He's a solid 2-way player in my opinion. The points will for sure start coming if he gets any more substantial time on the 3rd line. He's also great in his own zone.

Not sure what his future is with this organization, whether he's just trade bait or whether he's earned himself a spot on the team and pushed someone else to be trade bait (Krejci?), but it's been a pleasure watching him play this year.

So far so good on Hamill. Looks like he's finally starting to "get it". You can never have enough depth,his play of recent speaks volumes of the B's depth. Looks like he's gonna stick around for awhile also,Juliens raved about his play. On another note,Pouliot seems to be putting it together now also. That goal against Florida was a dandy! He's starting to play with some confidence. All in all,not too much to complain about if your a B's fan,except for Krejci's and Hortons slow starts. When they come around,look out!

He hustles. That's all I'll give him for now. Absolutely do not see him pushing Krejci out of the picture and don't see him making Krejci expendable in any way. He's been a decent two way player for now with absolutely no grit.

Good call on Pouliot. He started the season terribly but he's come on big time as of late.

Call me a retard,but i think its possible that Pouliot scores 20 this year. I was his biggest sceptic earlier,but i see Julien getting through to him. As far as Hamill,ive been impressed with his play. He's had decent camps,has never stuck; but he's getting it now. Krejcis of course signed his recent deal,he's going no where. But should the B's need a deadline pickup,either experianced d-man or a forward,im sure Hamill might be dangled as bait,along with a pick. Sh*tty problem to have eh? Too much depth!
