Boedker wasn't coming to Calgary at that price. Bet the lure of San Jose/San Francisco, not to mention playing with last seasons Stanley Cup finalists(including lining up with Thornton, Marleau, Burns, Pavelski, Couture etc) helped lower his price. He sacrificed money to play with a contender, which makes sense. I think he'd have asked for way more $$$ to come here.
