Percentiles are based on a three-year weighted average of Fantasy Hockey Standard League Scoring Settings. Percentiles represent the players rank among his respective position.

Perry's rights were traded to the Blackhawks' earlier Thursday for a seventh round draft pick from Tampa Bay and he has signed a one-year, $4 million contract with Chicago. The 38-year-old had 12 goals, 13 assists, 116 SOG, 95 PIMs and a -28 plus/minus through 81 games with Tampa Bay in 2022-23. The veteran right-winger will begin his 19th NHL season in 2023-24, representing his fifth team with the Blackhawks.

Chicago continues to acquire veteran leadership to help them through this transition period. Perry spent the last two seasons in Tampa, where he had 31 goals and 34 assists (65 points) in 163 games. Perry is a pending UFA, so the Blackhawks must get him under contract before Saturday.



Perry is expected to make his Canadiens' debut on Saturday with Joel Armia sidelined with a concussion. Perry will skate on the third line with Jesperi Kotkaniemi and Tyler Tofofli. He had five goals and 16 assists (21 points) in 57 games with the Stars a season ago.



Perry has missed the first seven games of the season with a fractured foot but will play Wednesday in Columbus. Perry is not the same player he once was, but he’ll get a chance in the top-6 right away, skating on the second line with Roope Hintz and Mattias Janmark.

Perry has missed the first seven games of the season but appears set to make his Stars debut on Wednesday. The Stars returned two forwards to Texas (AHL) on Tuesday, paving the way for Perry to enter the lineup. Perry’s best days are behind him—he was on a 16-goal, 11-assist per 82 game pace last year but had a devastating 4.4 on-ice SH%.

Perry skated for the second straight morning skate on Tuesday and will be checked by doctors on Thursday. If he is cleared, Perry could make his Stars debut vs. the Flames on Thursday or vs. the Capitals on Saturday.

Perry suffered a broken foot in mid-September and will miss at least the first two weeks of the regular season. Perry’s play has slipped in recent years and he is not expected to be anything more than a third-liner once he returns to the Dallas lineup.

Perry’s first training camp with the Stars will be delayed after suffering a broken foot on Wednesday. Perry will be re-evaluated in two weeks but will likely miss at least one month, which would put his status for opening night in jeopardy.


Perry had two years left on his eight-year, $69.0M ($8.625M AAV) deal that he signed in March of 2013. Perry was a great scorer for Anaheim after being picked No.28 overall in 2003 but his production has dropped off in the last two seasons. The 34-year-old had just 23 goals and 36 assists (59 points) in 102 games over the last two seasons. The buyout will cost the Ducks $2.625M against the Salary Cap in 2019-20.

Perry will make his season debut on Saturday, so Ondrej Kase was placed on LTIR to make room for the veteran winger to be activated.

Perry will his first game of the season and is expected to start on the top line with Ryan Getzlaf and Rickard Rakell. Perry is now 33-years-old and coming off of a 17-goal, 32-assist (49 points) season a year ago.

Ducks GM Bob Murray announced on Wednesday that Perry underwent surgery to repair his right knee and the initial timetable is set for 20 weeks of about five months. This is a tough blow to a Ducks team that looked as deep as they have in years, but opens the door for young forwards like Troy Terry and Sam Steel to play big roles right out of the gate.

Perry has been sidelined since December 11th with a knee injury but all signs point towards Perry playing tonight in Calgary. Perry was skating on the third line with Adam Henrique and Nick Ritchie at the morning skate, so expect him to be back in. Perry has six goals and 16 assists (22 points) in 31 games this season.
