Hard to say, chance at winning cup for 1 year and then sucking for the next 3+ years because you lost your best player for free from that team?
Tough call to make, especially if you don't win the cup and lose your best player for free ontop of that, then you have really crippled yourself.

But they're not gonna suck for the next three years. the Ducks have a well-regarded farm system and tons of cap room. Oh, and two All-Stars. Getzlaf and Ryan are still on the team, right?
They lose Perry and they sign two or three guys to replace him. It'll hurt, but it's not a deathblow.
ETA: This isn't really analogous to the Mavs, whose fans aren't really THAT upset anyway. The Mavs didn't resign Chandler because they convinced themselves two free agents were gonna sign with them, which was borderline insane. Here, the Ducks are choosing one superstar over another, and then making a run at a title. It would be like if the Mavs let Chandler walk but actually signed Dwight Howard.
