Tittle Jersey | | The move is a surprise, because Hamilton is 22 and seen as an anchor to the Bruins' defense. He was about to Fred Warner Jersey become a restricted free agent, and the Bruins appear to have decided his salary request was out of line with the cap requirements.What also makes the deal a surprise?
