For what it may be worth, AFP Analytics (as cited on Capwages) thinks Bourque should be signing for 2 × $1,862,250. The Stars can certainly afford to pay him that, but if he's still unsigned in July and gets an offer sheet, he could very easily price himself out of their plans.
Signing Rantanen for $12m a year and Johnston for 8.4 is going to cost them in other areas. But as Super Chicken used to say, ‘You knew the job was dangerous when you took it.’
