Major turnaround in the Corey Perry case: the Players' Association to appeal his contract termination
Everyone is aware of the story leading to the termination of Corey Perry's contract by the Blackhawks. It has circulated widely on the web, and Corey is currently taking care of himself to address his issues.
The main party involved has not commented on the situation, but he has not tried to oppose the Blackhawks' decision. On the contrary, he posted an apology letter to the organization and to Connor Bedard and his family.
However, according to what Elliotte Friedman reports, it's the NHL Players' Association (NHLPA) that might appeal, even if Perry is against it.
In fact, the NHLPA does not want to allow the league to set a precedent with this story, which would lead them to appeal the decision.
"Don't know what Corey Perry's decision will be, but there definitely is a push for the union to grieve even if Perry declines. I don't know exact details and have no desire to minimize anything, but there are strong feelings the NHLPA cannot allow this precedent."
- Elliotte Friedman
With a statement like this, we can certainly expect this story to continue making headlines.
