Hamilton was taken after Couturier. Nobody else had taken him. After Couturier was taken, perhaps Hamilton became BPA for the Bruins.
By some accounts, the Flyers had Duncan Siemens rated higher than Hamilton anyway, and took Couturier because he slipped to 8th truly unexpectedly. Couts was rated to go top 3-4 IIRC, so his slip to 8 was a surprise.
If Barkov or Drouin slips to 11th, we'll think about it!
And if our scouts, whom I trust, think Domi or Shinkaruk is the best player at 11, above all the D prospects, they will take him...
