The Edmonton Oilers Hand Out A Surprising Promotion To Corey Perry

Edmonton Oilers coach Knoblauch makes a bold move, promoting Corey Perry to the second line alongside Leon Draisaitl and Evander Kane.

The decision underscores the team's trust in Perry's veteran presence and offensive abilities, hoping to unlock his potential since joining Edmonton.

Perry's knack for creating havoc in front of the net, akin to Zach Hyman, could prove invaluable alongside Draisaitl. This adjustment indicates the Oilers are exploring in-house options before the trade deadline.




Despite his initial lack of points with the team, Perry's seamless transition and untapped potential bode well for the Oilers as they gear up for the playoffs.
