Blackhawks Settle With Corey Perry: Still Haunted - The Hockey News
Settlement terms not released. A contrite Perry has moved on to Edmonton Oilers, but have the NHL, hockey cleaned up their acts?
thehockeynews.comCorey Perry has been in the news recently mainly for his status with the Los Angeles Kings, including a temporary absence to attend to a family illness and being designated to non-roster status to facilitate his return home. There are older items about his time with the Chicago Blackhawks and a notable disciplinary-related waiver from 2023, but those events are not current to 2026.[3][4][5][8]
Key points from the latest coverage:
- Perry left the Kings to deal with a family illness and was placed on non-roster status, with the team calling up AHL players to fill in temporarily.[5][8]
- There have been persistent rumors and reports about his on-ice role and availability during the 2025–26 season, with no formal long-term designation publicly announced in the most recent updates.[5]
