What is going on with Corey Perry? That's the question many are asking after a strange decision from the Chicago Blackhawks last night. The mystery surrounding his absence got even deeper today.
Perry, who was brought in by the Blackhawks to serve as a mentor to the team's young players, was made a healthy scratch for Chicago's game against the Columbus Blue Jackets. Head coach Luke Richardson would only say it was an "organizational decision." Today, Perry was not on the ice for Chicago's practice session.
"Corey Perry, after being healthy-scratched due to an «organization decision» last night, is not practicing with the Blackhawks today."
"Petr Mrazek is not either. Not a very joyous Thanksgiving around these parts." Perry carries a cap hit for the Hawks of $4 million per season. Not having him on the ice when he's healthy doesn't make much sense, unless there's something going on that the team isn't making public. For now, there is absolutely no futher information to go on. Chicago's next game is Friday afternoon against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
