Forward Corey Perry still hopes to re-sign with the Edmonton Oilers, but the pathway to finding common ground on a deal has been difficult with the team's salary cap situation, reports TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun.
"Very possible Perry ends up on the free agent market Tuesday. But the door remains open with Edmonton," LeBrun wrote Sunday morning in a post on X.
According to PuckPedia, the Oilers have about $12.3 million in cap space with 20 of 23 players on their active roster and defenceman Evan Bouchard likely due for a big raise as a restricted free agent.
Perry, 40, recorded 19 goals and 30 points in 81 games with the Oilers last season. He added 10 goals and 14 points in 22 playoff games before his team was eliminated in the Stanley Cup Final.
The 6-foot-3 winger is coming off a one-year, $1.4 million contract.
