Today the Niagara IceDogs announced they have signed first round draft pick Freddie Hamilton. The newest member of the pack was selected 14th overall in May. Hamilton played for the Toronto Marlboros last season scoring 59 goals and adding 62 assists in just 74 games. Hamilton was impressive in his first action with the IceDogs at the annual Prospects Camp in June. Although rookies traditionally have a tough start in the OHL, I think you can expect to see Freddie get a good amount of ice-time this season with the IceDogs having a young group of forwards that will need the scoring help. This could certainly speed up his development as it did for Alex Friesen.
