• Oilers' Corey Perry: Puts up pair of points

  1D ago • By RotoWire

  Perry scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist and added two hits in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Wild. Perry snapped a five-game point drought Thursday, earning his first multi-point effort of the season. He tallied in the second period and set up a Jeff Skinner goal in the final minute of the game. Perry has four goals, two assists, 20 shots on net and 14 PIM through 21 contests. He's mainly played on the fourth line but occasionally features as far up the lineup as the second line. Perry could play a larger role while Zach Hyman recovers from an undisclosed injury.

• Oilers' Corey Perry: Scores in win Saturday

  13D ago • By RotoWire

  Perry scored a goal in Saturday's 7-3 win over the Canucks. Perry has three points over his last six contests. The winger converted on a quick passing play early in the second period to put the Oilers ahead 2-0. He's up to three goals, one helper, 13 shots on net, four hits, four blocked shots, 12 PIM and a plus-1 rating through 15 appearances. Perry will play regularly on the fourth line and second power-play unit, but his offense is unlikely to be very consistent.

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

  22D 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

  25D 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

  10/13/2024 • 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.
