Dougie Hamilton D BOS
1 Day Boston Bruins Comment

Bruins coach Claude Julien is very pleased with how Dougie Hamilton has handled himself in the playoffs.

At the age of 19, Hamilton has participated in four postseason contests. "[The] playoffs is another step, and he's taking that step extremely well, to me," Julien said. "[In Game 1] he was making good decisions, playing with Chara, sometimes against their top line. To be able to put him out there against the other team's top line shows that we do have confidence in him." Hamilton had an assist and a plus-two rating in 20:45 minutes of playing time in Game 1 of the Bruins' second-round series against the Rangers.

Hamilton played his best game of the postseason after skating in three contests versus Toronto in the opening round. He also had five shots during his 20:45 of ice time.

It looks as if Boston coach Claude Julien will insert Dougie Hamilton into the Bruin lineup for Saturday night's Game 2 against Toronto.

With Andrew Ference's suspension it was either Hamilton or Aaron Johnson who would draw back in. It appears based on Friday's practice, Hamilton will get the opportunity to play. Adjust your lineup accordingly.
