Oilers' Corey Perry: Helps out on power play
Rotowire
Perry logged a power-play assist, two shots on goal, two hits and four PIM in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Panthers in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals.
Perry took both penalties in the first period. He made up for the misdeeds by helping out on Leon Draisaitl's game-winner 19:29 into overtime. It continues a fantastic run for the 40-year-old Perry this postseason. The winger has earned 11 points, 23 shots on net, 28 hits, 12 PIM and a plus-4 rating across 17 playoff outings. He'll likely spend this series on the top line alongside Connor McDavid as a replacement for Zach Hyman (wrist).

Oilers' Corey Perry: Productive on top line with McDavid
Rotowire
Perry scored a goal in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Stars in Game 5.
Perry gave the Oilers a 1-0 lead on the power play at 2:31 of the first period. It was Edmonton's first shot of the game. Perry has also stepped onto the first line due to Zach Hyman's (arm) absence, and that means an even-strength gig with Connor McDavid and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins. It's likely Perry's best offensive opportunity since his Ducks days. Perry has three points (one goal, two assists) in his last two games and 10 points, including seven snipes, in 16 games in the playoffs. Those seven goals are the most by a player age 39 or older (at the start of the playoffs) in a single postseason. Perry had been tied with four players: Teemu Selanne (2011; Ducks), Mark Recchi (2010; Bruins), Ron Francis (2002; Hurricanes) and Jean Beliveau (1971; Canadiens). Perry turned 40 on May 16.

Perry has provided three goals, one assist, eight shots on net, 13 hits and a plus-5 rating over seven playoff outings.

Perry scored a goal on four shots, dished an assist and added four hits in Sunday's 4-3 overtime win over the Kings in Game 4.
Both of Perry's points came on the power play. He got the Oilers on the board at 4:11 of the second period and set up Leon Draisaitl's game-winner in overtime. Perry has four points, five shots on net, seven hits and a plus-5 rating over four playoff appearances despite primarily featuring in a bottom-six role. He was on the top power-play unit Sunday, and he'll have a bit more fantasy value if he sticks in that spot.
