It's confirmed for the former Canadien Corey Perry, and it's sad
He played only one year with the Canadiens, but Corey Perry was excellent and very appreciated in his role, so much so that fans were disappointed to see him leave.
Good old Corey had a very eventful year, but he still had his chance with the Edmonton Oilers.
That chance now appears to be over.
It's a sad realization, as his career might end by warming the bench.
Perry hasn't played since Game 5 against the Canucks, and since then, the Oilers have won three consecutive games.
For a veteran who thrives on playoff hockey, it must be tough to accept being left out.
According to a Chicago media outlet, his career could end on this sad note.
This is the risk when delaying retirement in this sport.
I don't want to say definitively that he's played his last game, but it's clear he is no longer part of the Oilers' plans, and it will be difficult for him to stay in the NHL next year.
A small consolation is that Perry earned a small bonus for the Oilers' participation in the third round, even though he didn't play in the third and fourth victories of his team.
