Hamilton did not want to sign with the Bruins. The teams was loaded with proven winner veteran leaders who are still contributing in a major way.

Why would people think that a player that has no loyalty or attachment to a team that brought him into the league would be great as part of the new team's core?

Also Hamilton tried to lower expectations of his world view.

Favorite player: Bouwmeester....

I would think that there are no other players in the league that would at age 18-20 would want to emulate Bouwmeester....

Far more of an upside on all the other players involved in this deal.
