from Eric Stephens of the LA Times,
Corey Perry’s future is also high on their agenda. Perry, 23, can be a restricted free agent July 1 and he figures to command a salary in excess of $4 million after leading the Ducks with 29 goals this season despite missing time because of a severed tendon in his right leg.
Burke said he’s aware the longer Perry remains unsigned, the more the right wing could be the target of a pricey offer sheet like the one Dustin Penner received from Edmonton last summer, which the Ducks ultimately didn’t match.
“There’s no more pressing issue for this hockey club than to get him re-signed,” Burke said.

Perry’s bargaining power went down because of his injury. Good thing for the Ducks because he was reportedly asking for $5+. If the Ducks can get him for $4 it will be a steal.
