The 40-year-old Corey Perry plans on playing another season
Tracey Myers of NHL.com: 40-year-old Corey Perry isn’t ready to hang them up just yet.
“That’s the plan is to be back next year, yeah.”
Perry is playing in his fifth Stanley Cup Final in the past six seasons. It’s his sixth overall trip to the Final. He’s won only one Stanley Cup, in 2007 with the Anaheim Ducks.
He has 935 points in 1,392 regular-season games and 137 points in 231 NHL playoff games to date.
Perry said he hasn’t really thought about retirement the past few seasons and adds: “It’s just not in me to think about it; there are other things that I love doing. I love playing, I love being around the room and I don’t think that’s going to come to my head anytime soon.”
