Low risk add. Perry brings some leadership and playoff savvy, something the Oilers can use. Although seeing him on the ice with McDavid would be hilarious in contrast.

McDavid can get him 10 goals between now and the end of the regular season. All Perry has to do is pick up the trash.
 
Been telling y'all this since the moment KK signed that contract.

Kotkaniemi was telling the whole world what he thought of himself when he signed that contract. He went from making $6M, having enormous leverage on the team and deciding to willingly sign a contract where he'd probably never make more than $6M in a full year for the rest of his career.

It was one of the safest, most team-friendly contracts any player has signed in a very long time.

He took financial security over everything else , good on him

He had no leverage , the cheap Canes simply tested the waters on a 1 year show me deal

They pivoted to a contract they could digest for term when he wasnt worth 6 mil for a 40 point player

This post sounds of someone who started watching sports yesterday.

If you think he didn't have leverage, you simply don't understand how contracts in the NHL work.

Kock got his offer sheet on Aug , 2021 and signs his 8 year extension March 2022

They had time to give the player a look , they were never going stupid on an extension

It was simply a one year , " fuck you Habs for the Aho shit " and evaluate later

Canes were going to let him walk , and offered a take it or leave it deal that was ok even if he wasnt more than a third liner

Why the hell did he sign if he had all the so called leverage ?
