Blackhawks suddenly release Corey Perry from contract: Everything we know so far
The Chicago Blackhawks have put Corey Perry on waivers with the intent to terminate his contract.
On Tuesday, the Blackhawks made the sudden decision to place Perry on waivers to cut him from his one-year, $4 million contract signed in late June. Perry played just 16 games with the Blackhawks this season, scoring four goals and nine points during that time.
The decision comes days after the 38-year-old forward stepped away from the team for an unknown reason late last week.
There’s still a lot unknown about Perry’s sudden termination from the team, but here’s what we do know so far about this unfolding story in Chicago.
