Insider Reveals The Real Reason Perry Got His Contract Terminated
For days, insiders within the NHL had remained tight-lipped about the incident leading to Corey Perry's departure from the league.
While details were previously elusive, a breakthrough occurred today with the disclosure of more information, and we have Frank Seravalli to thank for that.
Known for his fearlessness in confronting controversy, Seravalli, the driving force behind The Daily Faceoff, lived up to his reputation once again today.
He unveiled crucial details regarding the situation:
Fresh insights from @frank_seravalli: "Sources reveal that an incident involving Perry, fueled by alcohol, allegedly took place in Nashville on Nov. 17.
This incident occurred the night before the Blackhawks' game against the Predators, during a corporate event organized by the Blackhawks, with sponsors and team personnel in attendance."
Perry managed to play in the subsequent two games before the Blackhawks, upon learning of the situation, promptly benched him.
This new information sheds light on the Blackhawks' earlier secrecy surrounding the matter, providing a clearer understanding of the events leading to Perry's exclusion from the NHL.
