He's great, but I just don't think offer-sheets are worth it. For Hamilton, compensation would be taken from post-2015 drafts (2016 and beyond).
With tagging space, the Bruins would just match any non-detrimental contract offers Hamilton would sign and then sort out their cap-space after the fact.
There are no shortcuts to championships. I'm definitely down for the patient route until we're absolutely filled to the gills with young, blooming high-level NHL talent. When that happens (and it hasn't yet), then we can start looking at "going big".
