• Oilers' Corey Perry: Tallies in Thursday's win

  5D ago • By RotoWire

  Perry scored a goal and went plus-2 in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Predators. Perry has a goal and an assist over the last two contests. The 39-year-old winger remains in a fourth-line role, though that trio had a new look with call-ups Noah Philp and Drake Caggiula in the lineup Thursday. Perry has three points, 12 shots on net, a plus-1 rating and 12 PIM through 11 outings, so he's unlikely to offer much fantasy value at this stage of his career.

• Oilers' Corey Perry: Registers assist in loss

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  Perry posted a power-play assist, two shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Monday's 6-1 loss to the Blue Jackets. Perry saw 3:41 on the power play in a game where the Blue Jackets took six penalties. The winger has often featured on the second unit, but there could be a spot up for grabs on the first unit depending on the severity of Connor McDavid's lower-body injury. Perry probably isn't the first candidate for that role -- he has just two points to go with 11 shots on net, 12 PIM and a minus-1 rating over 10 contests this season.

• Oilers' Corey Perry: Jams in goal

  24D ago • By RotoWire

  Perry scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Blackhawks. Facing one of his former teams, Perry broke the Oilers' goal drought at 4:55 of the second period. The winger has filled a fourth-line role in both games this season, picking up five shots on net in addition to his goal. The 39-year-old is not guaranteed to be an everyday player, but the Oilers don't have any spare forwards on the roster as they operate close to the cap ceiling.

• Oilers' Corey Perry: Not done playing yet

  07/01/2024 • By RotoWire

  Perry signed a one-year, $1.4 million contract with the Oilers on Monday. Perry had 12 goals, 22 points and 46 PIM in 54 regular-season contests between Chicago and Edmonton in 2023-24. He also recorded a goal, three points and 12 PIM across 19 playoff appearances with the Oilers. Perry is projected to serve in a bottom-six role, but at the age of 39, he's could be a healthy scratch a fair amount of the time.

• Oilers' Corey Perry: Strikes on power play

  06/19/2024 • By RotoWire

  Perry scored a power-play goal on two shots in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Panthers in Game 5. Perry's second-period tally was ultimately the game-winner. The veteran winger has just three points with 15 shots on net, 17 hits and 12 PIM over 17 playoff outings, but he's often seen time on the second power-play unit when in the lineup. Perry's ice time remains limited -- even with his goal Tuesday, he saw a postseason-low 7:07 in the win.
