Yesterday, the Chicago Blackhawks placed Corey Perry on waivers with the intention of terminating his contract. Although the exact reasons for this decision have not yet been disclosed, it has created shockwaves throughout the entire NHL.
Perry was widely respected as a player, and these past few days have been challenging for many, particularly his current teammates.
Nick Foligno, another highly respected veteran within the Blackhawks' locker room, shared his thoughts on the situation:
Throughout his career, Corey Perry had a positive impact on his teammates, as is evident in their statements. Losing not only a great player but also a leader and a friend has undoubtedly been a difficult situation for them. However, they understand that actions have consequences, and it appears that Corey Perry's actions led to this outcome.
