Corey Perry signs a one-year contract with the Edmonton Oilers
The Edmonton Oilers have made a significant move in free agency today as the team elected to re-sign veteran forward Corey Perry to a one-year deal.
Perry was not a huge factor for the team in the playoffs last season, but it is clear that he is a culture and character guy for the team. Furthermore, he is a reliable depth forward, something the Oilers have struggled to find in the past. They have re-signed the 39-year-old to a one-year deal.
Corey Perry 1x$1.4M with #Oilers
The team made the announcement official just moments ago. He comes in at a 1.4 million dollar cap hit, just about double league minimum. This makes him a very affordable player that could also be waived and sent to the minors for a very small cap hit if his play falls off due to his age. As a result, there is very little risk in this deal.
