He just produced at a 51 point pace while generating 5v5 shots on goal at a higher clip than all but Zach Werenski among defensemen. Hamilton also ranked 19th at his position in even-strength offense WAR \u2013 tucked just behind Evan Bouchard and Lane Hutson \u2013 while finishing 7th in power play WAR on a per 82 game basis. Even if he\u2019s starting to decline, he\u2019s still one of the most dangerous offensive players in the league on defense.\u201d [Infernal Access<\/a> ($)]<\/p>\n Looks like Daniel Sprong has a new home:<\/p>\n Hockey Links<\/p>\n \u201cFive members of Canada\u2019s 2018 world junior hockey<\/a> team were found not guilty of sexual assault on Thursday, ending a months-long trial that has garnered national attention since it began in April.\u201d [The Athletic<\/a> ($)] [TSN<\/a>] [Sportsnet<\/a>]<\/p>\n NHLPA statement: \u201cDillon Dube, Cal Foote, Alex Formenton, Carter Hart, and Michael McLeod were acquitted of all charges by Justice Carroccia of the Ontario Superior Court.
