from Eric Stephens of the LA Times,
While Brian Burke has given his stars Scott Niedermayer and Teemu Selanne until next month’s NHL entry draft to tell him whether they will play next season or retire, the Ducks’ general manager says he is confident that he will re-sign Corey Perry, although it appears that won’t happen until July.

And we all know we can trust Burke to stick to his word and not bring them both back next January when their fractional-season salaries will fit under his cap figure. Yah, right!
