Confirmed by current NBC Sports Chicago broadcaster John Scott that Corey Perry “made a mistake in Columbus one night, drank too much and made a pass at a staff member who worked at NBC”. If that’s all Perry did then it’s not a big deal and nobody should be concerned. pic.twitter.com/dXDLSitSfW

As a reminder, the Hart Trophy winner in 2011 confided, following his divorce from the Illinois team, to having started working with experts in mental health and substance abuse, in order to discuss his “alcohol problems “.
On Monday, Perry signed a contract for the remainder of the season with the Edmonton Oilers. The 38-year-old has four goals and five assists for nine points in 16 games with Chicago this season.
