Corey Perry Signs With Edmonton Oilers
Edmonton Oilers Sign Corey Perry to Contract
Latest Line Combinations for the Edmonton Oilers
The Edmonton Oilers have made a move to bolster their forward depth, signing veteran winger Corey Perry to a one-year contract for $750,000 according to CapFriendly. Perry, 36, was most recently with the Chicago Blackhawks, who terminated his contract earlier this season.
The Oilers have been looking for a top-six winger for some time, and Perry is expected to fill that role. He has a lot of experience playing with skilled players, and he can contribute offensively and defensively.
With the addition of Perry, the Oilers now have three bonafide lines that can score goals. Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl will continue to lead the way, but Perry will give them another weapon to use.
The Oilers are hoping that Perry can help them make a deep playoff run this season. They have a lot of talent, but they need to be more consistent if they want to be a contender. Perry is a proven winner, and he could be the piece that they need to get over the hump.
