Or was he fine with the package but Stone's contract demands scared him off, once he had a chance to chat with the agent? I suppose more likely, Burke is just lying/wrong about some of the facts. Still interesting...
Vegas' offer is nothing close to this.

Valimaki = Branntsrom
Andersson >> Lindberg
2 1sts >>>>> 2nd

My gues is that the Sunday night deal was something like the 1sts + Andersson and maybe another mid-level prospect, then Dorian came back and demanded Valimaki at the last minute (maybe after Vegas put Brannstrom on the table)
