The Blackhawks have signed Corey Perry to an expensive contract after trading for his negotiation rights on day 2 of the draft.
Blackhawks Overpay Perry
On day 2 of the draft, the Chicago Blackhawks traded a 2024 7th round pick in exchange for Corey Perry's negotiation rights.
Perry is coming off a 25 point season with the Lightning where he served mainly as a 4th liner who could be a powerplay net front.
It was just announced that the Blackhawks will be resigning Perry to a super expensive contract.
According to AFP Analytics, Perry was projected to get an $850,000 contract so it is clear the Blackhawks want him.
He will likely serve as a mentor to Connor Bedard next year and help him transition into the NHL steadily and make sure he is able to develop at a good rate.
