The 40-year-old was injured during a pre-camp skate on Friday and is undergoing further evaluation, according to Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman.<\/p>\n
Initial reports of the injury came from Los Angeles-based MayorsManor.com, which said that Perry appeared to suffer the injury along the boards at the Kings’ practice facility in El Segundo. He was reportedly taken off the ice in a wheelchair.<\/p>\n
Friedman adds that it’s unclear whether there will be an official update on his condition before camp starts. <\/p>\n
Perry, one of the final active NHLers from the 2003 draft class, spent last season with the Edmonton Oilers, where he recorded his best numbers since 2021-22 with 19 goals and 11 assists for 30 points in 81 games. <\/p>\n
He signed a one-year, $2 million contract with the Kings as a free agent on July 1. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The 40-year-old was injured during a pre-camp skate on Friday and is undergoing further evaluation, according to Sportsnet’s…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":140040,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[556],"tags":[64,63,575,85],"class_list":["post-140039","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-nhl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140039","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=140039"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140039\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/140040"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=140039"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=140039"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=140039"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
