Value of: Corey Perry at $5 Million
- Thread starter McDonald19

He was the top buyout candidate on cap friendly today, so yah there's that.
That’s quite the sales pitch get an old, slow, shell of his former self.
Even if that shell is still putting up 45-50 points a year, if you're able to get him at a reasonable cap hit for that type of production, he should at least be worth trading an asset or two for.

True, but retaining salary is better than buying him out. I believe he has some value at $5 mil, thus the thread.

To be fair, "shell of his former self" is a relative term... he did have an MVP season and put up a few 40+ goal years. He's not that anymore, but he's still a solid NHL player... just not for 8.5+ mil per year. He still shows flashes, his minutes just need to be handled a bit better and he's probably better on a second line role than a top line. He's not washed up, but not what he used to be either.

The comments in this thread have been largely too harsh. Perry would still have value at 5 million. He's a consistent 50-60 point player, that's an above-average second liner. He also steps it up in the playoffs, as he's put up respectable numbers in every playoff series outside of this year.
I'd say he's worth at least a late 1st, maybe more.

If his contract now was $5M Ducks wouldn't even think of trading him. He's just not worth over $8M anymore hence Ducks retaining on a trade.

To be fair I highly doubt the Ducks are thinking of trading him at all let alone retaining 3.65M to do so. I think thats almost entirely wishful thinking on the part of a lot of fans
I think it'd have to be $5.125M, not an even $5M. Total salary in Perry's last year is $7M. Retention cannot exceed 50% for both salary and cap hit.
He and Getz are the core guys of the ducks. Next longest serving member is Fowler then cogs.
D core is young. Between 21-26 with KB and FB done.
Major shakeup would have to be upfront. Don’t think they have centred coming up to cover for kesler. Steel should help with th offense. But a change would be good for the ducks.
To be accurate. Perry has 2 40 goal seasons. So, not really a few. In the 5 years of his big contract he RS numbers are 301 pts in 383games. Ppg of 0.785So prorated to 64 pts over a full season. But last 3 years it’s about a 53 point average.
Playoffs. 57 games with 44 points. Ppg of 0.77 so same pace. Last 3 PO runs however is 15 points in 28 games. 0.53 pace.
He’s slowing down for sure.
Maybe a change is needed for both sides.

These are both calculated on the same percentage basis.
If Anaheim were to retain $3.625m of the cap hit, they would be retaining ~42%. That is the percentage of the salary they would also be liable for, so that dollar liability fluctuates with the contract. So in that final year they would be retaining under $3m in actual dollars.

Relax junior, it’s just a post.
This guy is only effective on his safe space team. Wouldnt expect teams to bite on him @ 5 mill.

Perry woulda been 3rd leading scorer on the oilers too... and hed prob do pretty damn good on mcdavids wing unlike lucic.

Perry is a dinosaur, and a dirty player. No need for the ducks toxic waste.
3rd leading scorer on our team is useless, Oil get a puck moving d he would be #10.
It’s a NMC. He’s in full control. Can’t be removed off the team without his consent unless the ducks buy him out.
Given that he’s been there for 13 years, weather is great, he has a ring, has term and really probably not expecting a contract after this one, he probably doesn’t want to leave.

With retention they can actually get some assets in return. Also the Ducks owner cares about the real dollars as much as the cap, he doesn't want to pay Perry 4,5,6 years from now.

That's true, but it might be best for his career to move on. If the buyout isn't an option and he refuses to waive the NMC, the Ducks next course of action could be to give his playing time to young wingers and make him a 4th liner/healthy scratch. We really don't know what Bob Murray and Corey Perry think of this situation. We can only speculate.

How about a young PMD like Justin Schultz? That would really turn things around in Edmonton...

Loser gave up and rage quit.
looks nothing like he does on the pens vs with the oil.
If you go to cap friendly and click on the buyout calculator for perry, the savings each season will shock you.
He has $24 million cash left on his deal. Of that $5.5 million in signing bonus so he gets paid that in full. Remaining $18.5 million is bought out at 2/3. Making cash out a total of $17.8 million.
They also factor in that he was paid more than cap hit taken so far, another $1.9 million.
His dead cap hit for the next 3 years is like $4.2, $2.7, $6 mill. Then 3 years at $2 million.
