Shortly after the NHL greenlit veteran forward Corey Perry to explore new opportunities, discussions are buzzing about where the seasoned player might land. Perry's contract with the Chicago Blackhawks was terminated on Nov. 30, 2023, following an undisclosed incident, prompting curiosity about his next move.
NHL insider Elliotte Friedman, sharing thoughts on the Jeff Marek show, weighed in on the chances of Perry joining a Canadian team, mentioning the Maple Leafs or Oilers. However, he raised the pertinent question of whether Perry would lean towards a quieter destination, considering the intense media scrutiny in markets like Edmonton and Toronto.
Friedman's observations introduce a range of potential destinations for Perry. The speculation gains momentum, and a tweet indicates Florida as a plausible fit, suggesting a return to familiar settings in Tampa or a seamless fit with the Panthers.
