Playing career
editMinor
editPerry grew up playing hockey with the Peterborough Minor Petes AAA organization of the OMHA's Eastern AAA league. In 2001, Perry led his Petes to a victory in the inaugural OHL Cup Bantam AAA championship held in Peterborough. Perry had a stellar year offensively, scoring 73 goals in 67 games.
Junior
editAfter a standout minor hockey career, Perry was drafted fifth overall into theOntario Hockey League(OHL) by theLondon Knightsin the 2001 Priority Draft. He immediately produced at a point-per-game pace for the Knights, recording 59 points in 60 games in his rookie season. The following year, hisNHL draftyear, Perry improved to 78 points and was selected 28th overall in the2003 NHL Entry Draftby theMighty Ducks of Anaheim.
In the2003–04 season,Perry scored 40 goals and 73 assists for 113 points in just 66 games, becoming the first Knight to reach 100 points in a season sinceJason Allisondid so in 1994. During the season, the Ducks were considering trading Perry to theEdmonton OilersforMike Comrie.The Oilers agreed to acquire Perry for Comrie, though there was one snag in the deal; Edmontongeneral managerKevin Lowefelt that Comrie should return $2.5 million of his salary. Comrie ultimately refused to do so and the trade subsequently fell through.[9]In the OHL playoffs, Perry scored seven more goals, with his offensive prowess earning him a call-up to the Ducks'American Hockey League(AHL) affiliate, theCincinnati Mighty Ducks,for the remainder of the2003–04 season.Perry was later named an OHL first-team All-Star after the season.
Entering his fourth and final year with the Knights in2004–05,Perry scored a junior career-high 130 points in 60 games. He went on to post an additional 38 points in the post-season to capture theJ. Ross Robertson Cupas OHL champions, en route to aMemorial Cupchampionship. In 18 post-season games, Perry scored 11 goals and handed out 27 assists. The Knights shut-outSidney Crosby'sRimouski Océanicin the final.
Professional (2005–present)
editAnaheim Ducks (2005–2019)
editPerry made his debut with the Ducks the following season, in2005–06.However, he was sent down to the AHL early in the year, along with fellow rookie and future linemateRyan Getzlaf.Perry scored his first career goal against the Edmonton Oilers on October 10, 2005 managing to score a point in each of his first four career games. He recorded his first career multi-goal game against theLos Angeles Kingson January 28, 2006. Perry and Getzlaf combined for 67 points in 36 games with thePortland Pirates—the Ducks' new AHL affiliate—and were subsequently recalled by the Ducks ahead of the team's run in the2006 playoffs.Perry finished his rookie season with the Ducks with 25 points (13 goals, 12 assists) in 56 games. In the playoffs, Perry scored no goals but managed three assists as the Ducks were eliminated in the Western Conference Final to the eighth seeded Edmonton Oilers.
In2006–07,his sophomore season, Perry improved to 44 points (17 goals, 27 assists) in all 82 games, playing with Ryan Getzlaf andDustin Penneron a combination dubbed the "Kid Line".[10]He went on in the2007 playoffsto win theStanley Cupwith Anaheim, scoring 15 points (six goals, nine assists) in 21 games. He assisted on a goal by Ryan Getzlaf in Game 1 against theOttawa Senatorsin theFinalswhile in Game 3, he scored a goal on Senators’ goaltenderRay Emerythat helped the Ducks take the lead. After the Senators tied the score, Perry assisted on Getzlaf's goal as the Ducks took the lead again. However, the Senators scored the last three goals of the game and won 5–3. In the final game, Perry scored a goal and had an assist on a goal byRob Neidermayer.Anaheim went on to win the next two games, securing its first-everStanley Cup.
The following year, in2007–08,Perry increased his totals to 29 goals, 25 assists and 54 points in 70 games and was named to his firstNHL All-Star Gameas an injury replacement (along withScott Niedermayer) to joinChris Prongerand Ryan Getzlaf as four Ducks on theWestern Conferencesquad.[11]Perry also made Ducks history during the season—on January 4, 2008 in a game against theChicago Blackhawks,he scored a goal just 16 seconds into the game, the second fastest goal ever scored by a Duck.[12][13]Despite the personal successes of the year, the defending Stanley Cup champion Ducks were unable to replicate the previous year's playoff success, falling to the fifth seededDallas Starsin the first round of the2008 playoffsin six games. Perry played in three games and had two goals and an assist.
On July 1, 2008, Perry signed a five-year, $26.625 million contract extension, identical to a contract Ryan Getzlaf had agreed to the previous off-season.[14]The2008–09 seasonwas a break-out year for Perry. He led the Ducks with 32 goals and finished second on the team in points, with 72. On November 1, 2008, he recorded five points in a game against theVancouver Canucks,four of which were assists, a career-high. However, on January 3, 2009, Perry was suspended for four games by the NHL after elbowingPhiladelphia FlyersforwardClaude Girouxduring the third period of a game on January 2.[15]Perry finished the regular season scoring four goals in the year's last five games. Continuing his scoring streak, he then contributed eight goals and six assists during the2009 playoffsthat saw the Ducks advance to Game 7 of the Western Conference Semifinals against the defending Stanley Cup championDetroit Red Wings,who ultimately ended the Ducks' season after their Game 7 victory. Perry scored the Ducks' second goal of that game. In Game 1, Perry scored a goal, but the Ducks lost 3–2, while the Ducks won Game 2 as Perry contributed two assists. After recording no points in a Ducks win in Game 3, Perry scored two goals and also recorded an assist in Game 4, but the Ducks lost 6–3. In Game 7, the Ducks lost the game, with Perry scoring a goal and providing an assist.
In the2009–10,Perry posted a 19-game point streak that ultimately ended on December 4, 2009, against the Dallas Stars. He ended the year with a team-leading 76 points (27 goals, 49 assists) and 111 penalty minutes. He also finished second on the club with his 27 goals—trailing onlyBobby Ryan's 35—and second in assists, with his 49, one short of Ryan Getzlaf's 50.
The following year, the2010–11season, would be a career year for Perry. Perry led the NHL with 50 goals, winning theMaurice "Rocket" Richard Trophyas a result.[16]With 48 assists, he finished the season with 98 points, third-highest in the NHL only behindTampa Bay LightningforwardMartin St. LouisandVancouver CanucksforwardDaniel Sedin.Perry was also chosen to the2011 NHL All-Star Game,where he won the Shootout Elimination Challenge in the Skills Competition.[17]Perry recorded his first career hat-trick in a game against theMinnesota Wildon December 12; he also recorded two assists in the game, giving him five points.[18]His goals came at even strength, shorthanded and on the power play, making him the second player in Ducks history to score in all three situations, the other beingPaul Kariya.[18]After the All-Star Game, Perry exploded offensively—from February 2 to 18, he recorded at least one point in seven consecutive games, and recorded his second career hat-trick on February 5 against theColorado Avalanche.[19]Nearing the end of the season, Perry continued his torrid scoring pace. On March 9, 2011, Perry scored two more goals, his 32nd and 33rd goal of the season against theNew York Rangerson Rangers’ goaltenderHenrik Lundqvist,surpassing his previous career-high, single-season goal tally. Perry scored another goal in a win against theColorado Avalanche.In the next game, he scored the only two goals as the Ducks lost to thePhoenix Coyotes.From March 19 through April 6, Perry recorded a least a point in ten consecutive games, later taking the NHL scoring lead from Tampa Bay Lightning forwardSteven Stamkoswhen he scored two goals in a 2–1 win against the Chicago Blackhawks on Blackhawks' goaltenderCorey Crawfordon March 26. He then recorded his third career hat-trick in a game against the San Jose Sharks on April 6, with his third of the game giving him 50 for the year.[20]After reaching the mark, he became just the third Ducks player to record a 50-goal season, joiningTeemu Selänneand Paul Kariya.[20][21] Led by Perry's late-season scoring surge, the Ducks finished with 99 points, good for the fourth seed in the West, setting up a series with the fifth seededNashville Predatorsin the first round of the2011 playoffs.After being held to no points in Game 1, Perry scored the Ducks' first goal on a power play in Game 2 againstPekka Rinne,later assisting on Ryan Getzlaf's goal that gave the Ducks a 3–1 lead. Near the end of the game, Perry then assisted on Bobby Ryan's empty-netter as the Ducks won 5–3. In Game 3, Perry recorded another two assists on goals by Teemu Selänne, but the Ducks fell 4–3. In Game 4, he set upCam Fowler's power play goal early in the first period, and early in the third, Perry scored a short-handed goal to give Anaheim the lead in an eventual 6–3 victory. However, Perry recorded no points in the last two games, both of which the Ducks lost, eliminating them from the playoffs. Perry finished the series with two goals and six assists for eight points in all six games. At the end of the 2010–11 season, Perry won theHart Memorial Trophy,prevailing over finalists Daniel Sedin of the Vancouver Canucks and Martin St. Louis of the Tampa Bay Lightning, as the NHL's regular season MVP.[22]He became the first Ducks player to win the Hart Trophy and the first Ducks player to win the Maurice "Rocket" Richard Trophy since Teemu Selänne in1998–99.[22]
For the2011–12 season,Perry struggled early in the season, along with the rest of the team. The year was considered an off-year for Perry and his teammates. Despite the early season struggles, Perry was named to the2012 NHL All-Star Game.[23]Despite managing to score 37 goals, 23 assists and 60 points, the Ducks missed the2012 playoffsafter finishing fifth in the Pacific Division and 13th in the Western Conference.
In thelock-out-shortened2012–13 season,Perry and his teammates got off to a much better start than the previous season, going 7–1–1 in their first nine games. Although his teammates were finding success scoring goals, Perry struggled to find the back of the net, scoring only one goal in his first 12 games. However, as the season progressed, Perry began to find his scoring touch, ultimately finishing the season with 15 goals and 21 assists for 36 points. In a game against the Minnesota Wild, Perry delivered a late hit to the head of forwardJason Zucker.After a review of the hit by NHL executiveRob Blake,Perry was given a four-game suspension.[24] On March 18, 2013, Perry signed an eight-year, $69 million contract extension with the Ducks, ten days after Ryan Getzlaf was signed to a similar eight-year contract.[25]The2013 playoffswould prove to be a disappointment for Perry, as he failed to score a single goal in the seven game loss to the Detroit Red Wings, despite firing 24 shots on goal.
Perry's 2013–14 season turned out to be one of his best as he had 43 goals, 39 assists and 82 points in 81 games played, helping the Ducks win their second consecutive Pacific Division title and was the runner up for the Rocket Richard Trophy only behindWashington Capitalsforward and captainAlexander Ovechkinwho ended with a league leading 51 goals. Perry was selected to the first All-Star team for the second time in his career.
Perry was named to his fourth All-Star Game when he was named to the2016 NHL All-Star Game,along with teammateJohn Gibson.[26]
Perry's goal production declined during the2016–17and2017–18seasons, falling from 34 in2015–16to 19 and 17 respectively.
On September 26, 2018, Perry was ruled out for five months after undergoing surgery for a torn meniscus and an MCL injury.[27]He made his2018–19 seasondebut on February 2, 2019 in a 9–3 loss to theWinnipeg Jetsand eventually finished the season contributing with six goals and four assists for 10 points in 31 games as the Ducks failed to qualify for theplayoffsfor the first time since2012.
On June 19, 2019, Perry's 14-year tenure with the Ducks ended after he was bought-out from the remaining two years of his eight-year contract to become an unrestricted free agent.[28]The buyout was prompted by his knee surgery and perceived declining utility, though longtime teammate Ryan Getzlaf would later remark that it had also served to free him from expectations, saying "when you have him as a $9 million player as opposed to a million and a half player, there's a lot different expectations. It allows a player to go and be just himself and not be judged on everything else, like hiscapnumber. "[29]Corey Perry is the last active player to have been a member of the Ducks while the team was still called the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim.[citation needed]
Dallas Stars (2019–2020)
editOn July 1, 2019, Perry signed on the opening day of free agency to a bonus laden one-year, $1.5 million contract with the Dallas Stars.[30]On November 13, he played his1,000th career regular season NHL gameagainst theCalgary Flames.He became the 340th player inNHLHistory to hit the milestone.[31]During the2020 Bridgestone NHL Winter Classicon January 1, 2020, Perry was issued agame misconductfor elbowingNashville PredatorsdefensemanRyan Ellisat 2:40 of the first period. He was subsequently suspended for five games on January 3, and forfeited $40,322.60.[32]Perry had 5 goals and 16 assists in 57 games before theregular seasonwas prematurely ended by the onset of theCOVID-19 pandemic.[33]
The Stars were on a six-game losing streak when the season ended, but when the NHL later scheduled the2020 playoffsto take place in late summer in abubble environmentinEdmonton,things proved to be different. Playing the Calgary Flames in the first round, Perry was credited with a pivotal role in the team's victory in Game 2 after losing the opening game, including an assist onJamie Oleksiak's game-winning goal.[34]He went on to contribute to the team's second round win over theColorado Avalanche,and provided the screen forDenis Gurianov's Western Conference Final-clinching goal against theVegas Golden Knights.[33][35]The Stars reached the2020 Stanley Cup Finals,playing against theTampa Bay Lightning.Perry's most notable feat came in Game 5 of the series when he scored the overtime-winner on Lightning goaltenderAndrei Vasilevskiyto stave off elimination and force a sixth game, though the Stars were ultimately defeated in game six to take the series 4–2 and win the Stanley Cup.[36][34]
Despite his strong postseason performance, the Stars opted not to re-sign Perry.[35]
Montreal Canadiens (2020–2021)
editOn December 28, 2020, Perry extended his career by signing as a free agent to a one-year, $750,000 contract with theMontreal Canadiens.[37]Due to the ongoing pandemic, the NHL temporarily realigned all of its divisions and, to minimize travel, all teams played only within those divisions for theregular seasonand shortened the regular season from 82 games to 56 games. The Canadiens were part of the all-CanadianNorth Division.[38]On January 11, 2021, Perry was waived by the Canadiens for the purpose of putting him on the team'staxi squad.[39]Despite starting the season on the taxi squad, Perry had a strong showing during the shortened season, finishing ninth in team scoring with 21 points (nine goals, 12 assists) in 49 games.[40][41]
The Canadiens qualified for the fourth berth in the North Division in the2021 playoffs,entering a first round matchup with theToronto Maple Leafsas decided underdogs.[42]However, for the second year in a row, Perry's team would go on a surprisingly deep run in the postseason, ousting the Leafs in seven games before sweeping theWinnipeg Jetsin the second round and then beating theVegas Golden Knightsin six games in the Conference Finals. In Game One against the Leafs, Perry attempted to jump over Leafs captainJohn Tavareswho had earlier been knocked to the ice, however, Perry's knee clipped Tavares in the head. Tavares suffered a concussion and had to be stretchered off, and did not return for the rest of the series.[43][44]After the game, Perry felt remorse for his role on the incident: "I don't know what else to do there. I tried to jump. I know Johnny pretty well and just hope he’s OK."[45][46]On reaching the2021 Stanley Cup Finals,his second consecutive with two different clubs and third overall appearance, Perry reflected that "you come into this League at a young age, and you have success early. I went to the Conference Final my first year, and then we ended up winning my second year. You think it's going to happen over and over and over again. You just keep the same team together and just ride the wave, but that's not the case."[47]Perry faced theTampa Bay Lightningin the Finals for the second consecutive year. The Canadiens were ultimately defeated in five games as the Lightning won their second straight Stanley Cup title.[48]Following the loss in the Stanley Cup Finals, Perry expressed a desire to re-sign with the Canadiens.[49]However, General ManagerMarc Bergevindeclined to offer Perry a two-year contract, and he opted to sign elsewhere.[50][29]
Tampa Bay Lightning (2021–2023)
editOn July 29, 2021, Perry, having played in two consecutiveStanley Cup Finalslosing efforts against the Tampa Bay Lightning, opted to join the back-to-back champions on a two-year, $2 million contract. On the occasion, he said "coming into a team that I've seen firsthand, the last two years. At the end of the day, where I'm at in my career, I want to win. I want to be a part of that and I'm looking forward to it."[51]Shortly after the beginning of the2021–22 season,he was named analternate captain.[52]After a 17-game scoring drought at the start of the season, he recorded his first goal with the Lightning on November 23, against thePhiladelphia Flyers.[53]On February 23, 2022, Perry scores his 400th NHL goal in a 5–3 win over theEdmonton Oilers.He would go on to score 19 goals in the season (his most since2016–17while still with Anaheim) and also 21 assists for 40 points in all 82 games played.[54]
The two time defending Stanley Cup Lightning qualified for the2022 playoffsas they finished the season as the fifth seed in the Eastern Conference, and for the second consecutive year, Perry faced the Maple Leafs in the first round, again beating them in seven games. The Lightning then swept thePresidents' Trophy-winningFlorida Panthersin the second round to reach their third straight Eastern Conference Final and sixth Conference Final in eight seasons. Perry had five goals in the first two rounds, tyingRoss Coltonfor the team lead.[1]His role on the team increased in the course of the playoffs, as injury toBrayden Pointin the first round lead to him taking Point's place on the top power play unit alongsideVictor Hedman,Ondřej Palát,Nikita Kucherovand captainSteven Stamkos.[29]The Lightning went on to beat theNew York Rangersin a six-game series, advancing to the2022 Stanley Cup Finals.Perry became only the second player in the history of the NHL to go to the Finals in three consecutive years with three different teams, afterMarián Hossa.[55]After scoring a goal in Game 3, Perry became the first player in NHL history to score a goal in the Stanley Cup Finals with four different teams.[56]Perry went on to lose his third consecutive Stanley Cup Finals with a third different team,[3]becoming the first player in NHL history to do so.[57]
Perry recorded 12 goals and 13 assists for 25 points in 81 games for the Lightning in the2022–23 season.He also recorded two goals, three assists and five points in all six playoff games in the Lightning’s first round exit in six games to theToronto Maple Leafs.
Chicago Blackhawks (2023)
editOn June 29, 2023, Tampa Bay traded the negotiation rights for Perry to theChicago Blackhawksin exchange for a2024seventh-round pick.[58]He was promptly signed to a one-year, $4 million contract for the2023–24 seasonwith the Blackhawks on June 30.[59]On November 25, after he had been a healthy scratch for the Blackhawks' last two games, the team announced Perry would take an indefinite leave of absence for personal reasons.[60]Kyle Davidson,the Blackhawks' general manager, added the decision was made by the team's management.[60]On November 28, the Blackhawks placed Perry onunconditional waivers,stating that an internal investigation revealed that he had "engaged in conduct that is unacceptable, and in violation both of the terms of his Standard Player's Contract and the Blackhawks' internal policies intended to promote professional and safe work environments." After Perry cleared waivers the following day, the Blackhawks terminated his contract.[61][62]
At a press conference on November 28, Davidson said that the Blackhawks had learned of misconduct on Perry's part while the team was preparing to play against theColumbus Blue Jackets.According to Davidson, when team officials learned this information, they pulled Perry from the lineup and began an internal investigation, which culminated in the decision to cut ties with him.ESPN's Emily Kaplan reported that Perry was believed to have been involved in an incident with a Blackhawks employee.[63]Perry apologized for the incident and said he was seeking professional help for substance abuse.[64]
Edmonton Oilers (2024–present)
editOn January 22, 2024, Perry was signed to a one-year contract by theEdmonton Oilers.[65]On June 2, the Oilers qualified for theStanley Cup Finals,marking Perry's fourth trip to the Finals in five years and fifth trip altogether. The Oilers would ultimately lose the series to the Florida Panthers in seven games.
On July 1, 2024, the first day of free agency, Perry re-signed with the Oilers to a one-year, $1.4 million contract.[66]
