If Jamie McGinn was a greatest hit, then Freddie Hamilton is a very deep cut.
Hamilton, like most late round picks, was drafted in the fifth round of the 2010 NHL Entry Draft by San Jose to little fanfare, and this site wrote at the time that he “could mature into a marginally offensive third line center.”
Hamilton ended up being one of the Sharks’ more successful picks from his draft class. Successful is a relative term, of course, because Hamilton was the only player in that class to suit up for the Sharks in the NHL.
