Last Wednesday, there was a noticeable development with Corey Perry. Although he participated in the Wednesday morning practice, he unexpectedly left the Blackhawks' group between the morning skate and the game and hasn't been seen since.
Perry's agent recently spoke up about the situation, stating:
However, what adds to the intrigue is the general manager of Chicago declaring that it was the Blackhawks who decided to part ways with Perry, not the other way around. In essence, Perry will be staying away from the Blackhawks for a while, as per Kyle Davidson.
Despite a strong start to the season on the ice, it appears to be the end of Perry's stint in Chicago. Elliotte Friedman shed light on the situation, mentioning the possibility of a trade or even Perry going through outright waivers (conventional waiver or contract termination).
The unfolding events are something to keep an eye on, and don't be surprised if Perry's name shows up on waivers. You can catch the details in the Sportsnet segment on this matter below:
