How can we know for sure that he would reject a 3year bridge around 5-5.5M?
I guess I assumed the Bruins started with a bridge deal offer before working up to a longer term deal. What's the source or report about the 6 year deal with the $5.5AAV? I had heard the dollar figure but not the term, and don't see anything on his twitter account.

EDIT: Nevermind, found it. Looks like the counter-offer from Hamilton's side was $7.5M AAV for 6 years.
