[This is a team decision, not Perry’s decision, he says. No additional details given.](https://twitter.com/BenPopeCST/status/1728459077225988159)
Still don’t know what this could mean. If it was a personal matter then he would have been part of the decision but does this mean he’s in shit for something we don’t know yet?
wtf man.
is he a raging alcoholic??
So in about a week the Hawks have lost 2 of the 3 veterans they brought in the raise up the new kids. Anyone think they’ll bother acquiring new vets now that Perry and Hall are gone?
This is a random ass take but did he use a racial slur maybe? And they’re not trying to out him, but at the same time punish him and make him take counseling? This is all so random the “usual” reasons someone is away don’t make sense at this point.
Y’all need to chill tf out. It’s probably just a family matter that the Hawks won’t comment on
Here’s some thoughts from some random neckbeard on Reddit (me), firstly, I hope it’s not anything crazy (serious health issue, family health issue), other than that, I’m not trying to spend too much brain power on wondering what the hell happened. Sure, the organization just dealt with a huge issue regarding not being totally open about stuff, either way, if it’s bad, we’ll find out, if it’s health/personal related, I wish him the best and he doesn’t need the spotlight on him, and if he indeed did bang someone’s mom, we need to find out as soon as possible.
Tired of the comments on the main sub of “Blackhawks being shady, what else is new hur hur hur”.
Like, let’s wait for some actual info, speculation does nothing.
Weird ass year. Bears DC gets fired no one knows why, Bears RB coach gets fired no one knows why. Corey Perry away from the team indefinitely no one knows why.
Like if Correy Perry punched Richardson or there was some locker room beef just say that. The Hawks don’t have the luxury to be mysterious these days lmao
On the one hand, they’re not good, and he was never going to stick around long-term anyway, so it doesn’t really matter and probably no one should stress themselves out about this unduly.
On the other hand, if it’s a team decision and it’s not trade-related, then it’s obviously disciplinary, and if he did something bad enough to deserve to be suspended indefinitely, then I’m not sure I see the logic in keeping that quiet and making the org look shady when they’re not the ones in the wrong. Maybe there’s a legal issue? But in that case, it would presumably be something *really* bad, and I’m left even more confused.
So annoying
Phil Kessel time.
This organization is a tire fire 🔥
Wtf is happening
It’s such a weird situation. Personal matter but yet team decision. I don’t even know what that could be. Could be something super serious to something that the team is forcing him to step away and take care of instead of avoiding. This is all super weird.
The plot thickens. Or gets more confusing. Or both.

So Alan Williams, Corey Perry, and David Walker walk into a bar…
Seriously this is very bears-esque I really hope this is something minor.
