Hamilton is not better than Brodie. He might be soon, but he's not right now. Even if he is the 3rd best on the team, that has nothing to do with whether or not he is a stud. Who is the 3rd best defenseman on the Preds and Ducks? Answer = stud.

Don't believe for a second Brodie is better than Hamilton or Giordano for that matter.

I don't care about your stupid stats and graphs and charts. Look at the ice time. Same with Mrazek vs. Fleury (or any backup goalie you think is better than Fleury because stats). Brodie is 1st pairing and gets the toughest matchups. Hamilton is second pairing and gets more favorable matchups. Brodie plays 1st pairing minutes, Hamilton plays 2nd pairing minutes. Why do you think Team Canada selected Brodie to play in the World Championships and not Hamilton?

Again, I'll quote myself and disregard your stupid rabbit-hole argument:

If you're going to embarrass yourself by ignoring stats and point to ice time and the fact that Hamilton was still playing in the playoffs the year Brodie went to the world championships (which, really don't mean poop.) then I'm not going to waste my time. No point in putting forth valid arguments when you sit there and discredit data and stats and point to ice time LOL. (frank)ing ice time lol. That is hysterical.

Huh?

Ok, genius, why do you suppose a team would play one defenseman significantly more minutes than another defenseman, especially at even strength? If that team is trying to win hockey games, do you suppose it is because they think one defenseman is better than the other defenseman?

Again, FOR A THIRD TIME, I'll quote myself and disregard your stupid rabbit-hole argument:

"Even if he is the 3rd best on the team, that has nothing to do with whether or not he is a stud. Who is the 3rd best defenseman on the Preds and Ducks? Answer = stud."

In other words, fine, you little b!tch, Hamilton is better than Brodie. Does that mean Brodie still can't be a stud? Is it possible for a team to have 3 stud defensemen? Most would say the Flames, Preds, and Ducks et al. are proof that this is possible.

Back to your stupid trade scenario, no team wants 3 pieces of garbage for one of their best players. Why don't you stick to your fantasy league where you can rip off rubes with your BS trades and leave the rest of us alone.

Fine. Brodie still a stud. Calgary still laughs at your stupid trade proposal. Nice try, rabbit-holer.
