Important update regarding Corey Perry's return, and it reflects highly on the player
In Montreal, we all loved Corey Perry, and we were all disappointed when he signed with another team, especially the Lightning, who had just defeated us in the Stanley Cup Finals.
Many thought that Marc Bergevin should have offered him a two-year contract, similar to what he got in Tampa Bay, but that wasn't the case. One thing is certain, the fans were disappointed.
Now that we know the events and he is a free agent, we learned yesterday that he met with Gary Bettman and got his blessing to play again in the NHL, but there's an important detail that we didn't know.
So, it was Corey Perry's own initiative to meet with Bettman and discuss his return to the game. Wow! That says a lot about the person.
It shows that he is genuinely sorry for what happened, and he wants to do things the right way. Additionally, it demonstrates his eagerness to return to the game, which is significant.
It's great to have the right to come back, but if the desire isn't there, we wouldn't even be talking about it. Perry will return to the game as soon as a team offers him a contract. Let's hope it's the Canadiens, you never know.
