The 27th overall selection of the 2009 OHL Priority Selection by the Niagara IceDogs, Dougie Hamilton would play all four years of his junior career with the club, helping them to an OHL Finals appearance in 2012. Named CHL Defenceman of the Year for the 2011-12 season and drafted 9th overall in 2011 by the Boston Bruins at that year's NHL Entry Draft, offered here is this IceDogs jersey worn by Hamilton during his first junior season of 2009-10. Made by Reebok, brand/CHL tagging along with a size "56" fly tag is affixed to the inner collar while Reebok and CHL crests grace the reverse neckline and hem as well. Decorated over the front with an IceDogs team crest that features embroidered details throughout, an OHL league patch has been added over the right breast while an additional Reebok one is seen over the left side. With matching alternate logo patches having been added over both shoulders, the sleeves and verso of the garment have been styled with Hamilton's number "27" in dual layer tackle twill numerals while "Hamilton" is spelt out in matching style across the affixed matching nameplate at the top of the reverse. Exhibiting good game-wear in the form of team repairs over the left sleeve, lower reverse and left collar bone plus a large unrepaired tear near the left cuff, stick marks are present over both sleeves while coloured board paint transfer marks are observed over the right sleeve and lower reverse. With additional battle scars found in the form of unrepaired holes and board burns over the left sleeve, pilling exists over the collar and interior, where an IceDogs team tag denoting the piece "2009-2010 Game-Worn Jersey" has been heat pressed inside the reverse hem. Of note, the jersey has general dirtiness and toning seen throughout that has dulled down the white parts of it. Accompanied by a matching IceDogs LOA and having been signed by Hamilton at the top of "7" on the reverse with silver marker ink signature that displays well despite some fading from age, the jersey has been photo-matched with Getty Image #95690875 (January 8th, 2010 vs London) to the team repair near Hamilton's left collar bone.
