New Jersey Devils News

The Flames have acquired Dougie Hamilton from the Bruins for 15th, 45th and 52nd draft picks in this year’s draft.

Hamilton is a pending restricted free-agent, but the Flames should have no problem getting him under contract. Since being draft 9th overall in 2011, Hamilton has scored 22 goals with 61 assists (83 points) in 178 career NHL games. He enjoyed a breakout season in 2014-15, registering 42 points (10G / 32A) in 72 contests. He joins Mark Giordano, T.J Brodie and Kris Russell to form a very strong top-4 on the Flames back-end.

Hamilton (upper-body) will not travel on the Bruins three-game road trip.

The Bruins will wrap up their season on a three-game road trip, which Hamilton will not travel on. He has missed the last seven games and it looks like he will miss the rest of the regular season. At this point there is no word whether or not Hamilton will be ready for the playoffs.

Bernier will start in the Maple Leafs season finale on Saturday.

Bernier allowed on goal on 13 shots after replacing James Reimer in Wednesday’s 5-0 loss to Columbus. Pre All Star break Bernier was 16-14-3 with a 2.76 GAA and .914 SV%. After the All Star break the Maple Leafs fell apart, and Bernier went 5-14-3 with a 3.04 GAA and .911 SV%. It was a rough season for the entire franchise and it will come to a close tonight vs. the Habs.

Bernier is the Maple Leafs confirmed starter.

Bernier allowed four goals on 31 shots in the Maple Leafs loss in Buffalo on Monday. He has not registered a win since March 11th. Over the last month he has just that one win in nine starts while posting a 3.87 GAA and .891 SV%. It has been a greasy season for Bernier, who will look to play spoiler tonight vs. the Senators.

Bernier gets the nod on Wednesday in Buffalo.

Bernier was pulled after allowing three goals on 16 shots in the Maple Leafs loss to the Panthers on Saturday. James Reimer started the last two games, including last night so it will be Bernier tonight in Buffalo. Bernier has gone 2-0-0 with a 1.45 GAA and .930 SV% in his first two starts against the Sabres.

Bernier will start in goal on Thursday.

Hamilton is out indefinitely with a shoulder injury.

Hamilton missed Monday’s game after suffering what is believed to be a shoulder injury on Sunday. Out indefinitely means that Hamilton could be out for the rest of the regular season—this is a huge blow to the Bruins playoff push. Expect Adam McQuaid to skate with Zdeno Chara on Thursday.

Markstrom gets the call in Arizona.

Markstrom has made two NHL appearances and as it stands now, he is 0-1-0 with a 10.21 GAA and .500 SV%. He went down to the AHL last weekend and went 2-0-0 with a 1.42 GAA and .943 SV% so maybe this time around he will have a little more confidence. He draws a great matchup for people who are in a pinch fora spot-start—the Yotes have lost seven in a row.
