After an early exit from the Blackhawks, Corey Perry is reportedy on his way to the Edmonton Oilers. Tyler, gives his instant reaction and analysis to the news
not sure yet if this is good or bad twerking something that's working good as of right now could be bad but yes his front net presence and his grit could be good but it could be a flop
This reminds me of the Kane trade. Perry knows this is his last chance in the NHL, and he has a solid chance at the Cup. If he plays his cards right, brings some leadership and grit, he can’t lose. If he slips up – he’s gone, no second chances.
There was no way that a 4th line with an average height of 5’8” was gonna win a Stanley cup. They still need to get a Center with some size and grit so we can use Ryan as a 4th line winger or 13th forward.
Think this is a good signing, no real cost, if we can upgrade elsewhere I really hate to trade our assets for past their prime rentals, we do this every year. Anyone coming in has to be better than Broberg and Lavoie or no deal.
Oilers: "We need a Goalie!!!!….nah let's sign Kane…..WE NEED A GOALIE!!!…nah let's sign Perry"
You'd think the oilers would have figured out there is a difference between a good goalie and goalie on a good run after, Smith, Koskinen, Scrivens, Campbell, ect.
first….. the Oilers winning streak comes to an end, then….. Corey Perry gropes McDavid's mom….. and of course, the Oilers miss the playoffs, blame the coach and send Skinner to the minors. heard it here first.
"But why fix something that isnt broken and bring in someone new? It could backfire!".. Buddy we've had games in our win streak with multiple AHL players on the team, we're fine.
One reason I can like it is they don't have to trade away, really, or make a trade. The team's not perfect but they are continually getting more solid as one, don't want to hurt the structure by unfamiliarity. Not obligated to keep him forever and he does bring game experience to and on the ice
I hope that the team did its Due Diligence. It would be devastating if just before the playoffs, all the headlines are like: "The Oilers knowingly signed Perry even though as a supposed veteran mentor, at a Blackhawks event, in a drunken stupor, Corey Perry _____(fill in the blank)_______. I hope that the blank isn't that bad, but just bad enough for the Hawks to terminate his contract with cause. 😨😖
@ 1:22, no one mentions this but Mactavish before joined in the Oilers from Boston, in 84 was serving a 1 year sentence for a DUI causing bodily harm.Glen Sather took a chance on him and MacTavish has turned his life around since.
You forgot to mention Craig McTavish but you're too young to remember or know about that. 🙄 Personally, I hate the Oilers to the bone but I will admit, this is a pretty good move for them. He will make a positive difference for the team. F*ck!

Playoff experience.hopefully he plays like a 4.5M dollar man. Erase some of Campbells lunacy cap hit.

Hi, herro
Might need some need some depth between the pipes? Might?
Your backup is an AHL goalie! Give your head a shake.
I’m so stoked to have Perry in Edmonton.
This is a cheat code to Stanley cup finals 😂
Perry, Kane, Draisaitl…..KD Perry line
first….. the Oilers winning streak comes to an end, then….. Corey Perry gropes McDavid's mom….. and of course, the Oilers miss the playoffs, blame the coach and send Skinner to the minors.
heard it here first.
Look up how MaCtavish came to the Oilers. More controversial than any players you mentioned
Love it.
"But why fix something that isnt broken and bring in someone new? It could backfire!".. Buddy we've had games in our win streak with multiple AHL players on the team, we're fine.
Is it official? If not, it would be hilarious if it doesn't happen.
Poor Tyler, always next year for the bills
As a Habs fan, that's a great signing for the Oilers. Good for you guys! Your odds of making the finals just went up 10% in one movel Go Oilers!
Have family way up in Oilers brass. He said Perry has NOT signed yet and told the Oilers he is leaning towards the Rangers.
I like this. We need more nasty. Lol

Send him to bakersfield
Better stay away from #94 though…
He’ll probably play his first game on Thursday vs the Blackhawks. Awwwwkward
Perry in Oiler blues! Finally. This guy is such a jerk to play against. Goodluck everybody else!
Love this signing! They need this type of player in the bottom 6. Such an asshole to play against. Love it.
Toronto should have made a play for him
Perry can help in the 3rd line and pk. Oil need big framed players and he helps that. Great move for Perry and the Oil.
Hes gunna rack up so many penalty minutes
Good player, but the only player to lose 3 consecutive stanley cups with 3 different teams. Don't think I'd sign him.

Plug Perry with Kane and watch the magic
Pretty escaped one of the worst teams this year and finds himself with one of the best teams. Good for Perry and GREAT for the oil!
What does the parade route look like now??? Keep it the same or extend the route?? It's party time!
Considering injury and health problems, it's not a bad move.
Don't give your heart to "Lie" …can't believe any scores, run by freemasonry …any thing run by "Lie" …it's all demonic magic 🎩 #Craft 😅😅
Perry knows he can't wear 94 in Edmonton right?
@ 1:22, no one mentions this but Mactavish before joined in the Oilers from Boston, in 84 was serving a 1 year sentence for a DUI causing bodily harm.Glen Sather took a chance on him and MacTavish has turned his life around since.
we already got a guy who takes the odd stupid penalty, his name is Evander
He wants to play. Dude doesn’t need money. Bring us the cup boys!
Kane + Perry. FAFO just becomes exponentially spicier!!!
Oilers are going to win the cup now
Ken Ken Ken
You’re a bottom feeder!
Worked with Kane!
Will work with Perry.
Sick, sick, sick, awesome !
Thought, he'd enjoy the florida sun and more money, but he comes to cold Edmonton for the cup – magnificient.
You forgot to mention Craig McTavish but you're too young to remember or know about that. 🙄 Personally, I hate the Oilers to the bone but I will admit, this is a pretty good move for them. He will make a positive difference for the team. F*ck!
Gagner Ryan Perry. The 3 wise men line.
Edmonton the city of second chances 🤘🏼 love to see perry adding some depth, been waiting for this since Chicago dropped him!
He can be the dennis rodman to their red tide! Hooray
