ie: Bruins were resigned to the fact that an offer sheet was coming. And they would've probably matched even just out of principal because said offer sheet was from the Oilers and Chirelli. But the Boston media and fans would've been hard on Hamilton for daring to sign an offer sheet in the first place and placed unrealistic expectations. So, we'll trade him to the one team where the former GM won't likely try to do an offer sheet.
