We Now Know When Perry Will Play His First Game With The Oilers
In a new update, we learned that Perry should be in uniform tonight against the Nashville Predators today as the Oilers will look to win a 16th straight game.
Yesterday, he opened up about it:
"I'm excited, it's been a long two months, self-reflecting, going through a lot of things and I'm excited to be here now. Practice has been good. I've only had two real practices and a couple of morning skates, but for the most part, I felt OK. It's not the same, you can skate all you want by yourself and do all the things, but you have NHL players pushing on you and NHL goalies in the net, it's a different animal. We'll see how it is tomorrow and go from there."
