Corey Perry returns to Kings on one-year, $1-million deal

The 41-year-old has returned to the Los Angeles Kings on a one-year, $1-million deal, Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman reported on Wednesday.

Perry is entering his 23rd NHL season. He began last season with the Kings, but was traded to the Tampa Bay Lightning at the deadline for his second stint with the team.

Between both teams, he totalled 37 points (17 goals, 20 assists) in 72 games. 

Perry has 972 regular-season points (465 goals, 507 assists) in 1,464 games. In the prime of his career, he was a 50-goal scorer with the Anaheim Ducks in 2010-11. 

Now, Perry brings a veteran presence to the Kings, with prolific playoff experience. The winger has played in 244 post-season contests, recording 64 goals and 77 assists. He also won a Stanley Cup with the Ducks in 2007 and has been to six Stanley Cup Finals in his career. 

Alongside Brent Burns, Perry remains the only active player from the prolific 2003 NHL Draft.
