Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Notches assist
Dougie Hamilton posted an assist and went plus-3 in Wednesday's 6-0 win over the Canucks.Hamilton has received some in-game rest for each of the last three contests, playing less than 20 minutes in each of those games. He has three assists in that span, and it doesn't appear to be a performance issue -- the New Jersey Devils simply have their preferred personnel available on defense, so head coach Sheldon Keefe doesn't have to lean on his top guys as he did earlier in the month. Through 13 outings, Hamilton is up to a goal, six helpers, 44 shots on net, 15 hits, 19 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Extends point streak in loss
Dougie Hamilton registered a helper on the man advantage in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Red Wings.Hamilton banked a secondary assist on Nico Hischier's third-period power-play marker. Hamilton added six shots, two blocks, one hit and a minus-1 rating to go along with a team-high 24:28 of ice time. The right-shot blueliner is currently riding a four-game point streak consisting of one goal and three assists after failing to register a point in his first six outings. Since Luke Hughes made his season debut in Thursday's loss, Hamilton will likely need to produce offense at a consistent pace if he wants to fend off the former for the quarterback role on the No. 1 power-play unit. Hamilton has posted four points (one goal) and a minus-5 rating over 10 games.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Ties game on power play
Dougie Hamilton scored a power-play goal on four shots, added two hits, blocked two shots and went minus-2 in Saturday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Capitals.After opening the season with no points over six games, Hamilton has gotten on the scoresheet in back-to-back outings. The defenseman's process has been solid throughout -- he's posted multiple shots on net in seven of eight contests this season for a total of 28. Hamilton has also logged 11 hits and 16 blocked shots, which is an uptick from his usual level of physicality. Now that he's shaken off the rust, fantasy managers can deploy Hamilton with confidence as a borderline No. 1 fantasy defenseman.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Gets on scoresheet with helper
Dougie Hamilton notched an assist and four shots on goal in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Senators.Hamilton's offense was a bit late to the party, but he's finally cracked the goose egg in the points column. It's likely the 31-year-old defenseman had to shake off the rust after missing most of last season due to a pectoral injury. Hamilton has added 24 shots on net, 14 blocked shots, nine hits and a plus-1 rating over seven appearances, so fantasy managers should continue to be patient with the blueliner, who has reached double digits in goals in eight of his last 10 seasons.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Ready for 2024-25
Dougie Hamilton has fully recovered from his pectoral injury, Amanda Stein of the New Jersey Devils' official site reports Wednesday.Hamilton didn't play past Nov. 28 because of the injury. He underwent surgery for a torn pectoral muscle Dec. 1 and was placed on long-term injured reserve Jan. 25. Having Hamilton healthy for the 2024-25 campaign will give the Devils a big boost. He excelled in 2022-23 with 22 goals and 74 points in 82 regular-season contests and recorded at least 30 points in nine consecutive campaigns before being limited to 20 contests in 2024-25. If not for the injury, he would have almost certainly extended the streak -- he already had five goals and 16 points last season before getting hurt.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: May not return for regular season
Dougie Hamilton (pectoral) is in danger of missing the rest of the regular season, with general manager Tom Fitzgerald telling reporters Tuesday, "It's long-term with Dougie. Will he play by the end of the season? Right now I don't know," per Amanda Stein of the New Jersey Devils' official site.Hamilton has been out of action since Nov. 28 against the Islanders, a stretch of 41 games on long-term injured reserve. The 30-year-old blueliner was putting together a strong offensive campaign prior to getting hurt, racking up 16 points in 20 games for the Devils. At this point, fantasy players probably shouldn't be expecting him to play much even if he does return during the regular season.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Placed on long-term injured reserve
Dougie Hamilton (pectoral) was moved from injured reserve to long-term injured reserve Thursday, James Nichols of New Jersey Hockey Now reports.This move can be made retroactive to Nov. 28, and Hamilton isn't expected to return until March at the earliest, so this doesn't impact his timetable. However, it does give the New Jersey Devils considerable cap maneuverability for the duration of Hamilton's time on LTIR. The 30-year-old defenseman, who comes with a $9 million cap hit, has five goals and 16 points in 20 contests in 2023-24.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Not close to return
Coach Lindy Ruff said Friday that Dougie Hamilton (pectoral) "is a long ways away," Amanda Stein of the New Jersey Devils' official site reports.Hamilton had surgery Dec. 1 for a torn pectoral muscle and will likely be sidelined for another three to four months. The defenseman had five goals and 16 points in 20 games before his injury, including four goals and eight points on the power play. Hamilton is iffy at best to return before the end of the regular season, but he could be back for some playoff action depending on how deep a run the Devils are able to make.
