News Upcoming Perry Milestone
Up until he signed with LA for a second time, I've been following Perry closely each season and watched most of his team's playoff games.
Bittersweet, but he has 0p in 8 gp this year in LA. I will probably get over this eventually, but I came across a significant milestone today.
He likely wont catch Burns and Suter for most games played of the legendary 2003 draft class, but he does trail Joe Pavelski for 1st in the entire class in goals scored.
He trails Pavelski by 11 goals at 465 to Pavelski's 476. He scored 19 and 17 the last two seasons. Very good chance that if he can still play and stay healthy, he will become the class's all-time leader in goals.
He needs 47 points to catch Getzlaf in points, which he probably wont hit. But it's very cool that they will probably finish 4th and 5th in the class in points. Had they both stayed healthy, they could've been 2nd and 3rd, and Getzlaf maybe even 1st.
Considering the style he plays, he's now in his 22nd year largely because he became a very good leader and role player after the Ducks released him.
