The story surrounding Corey Perry and the Blackhawks has generated a lot of attention, but it's officially over. At least for the Blackhawks. The forward was not claimed by the other 31 teams in the NHL, so he is now a free agent as of 2:00. Now, it remains to be seen if another team will want to sign him before the December 1 deadline, which is this Friday. Perry might also need time to recover from all this and may desire to step away from the world of hockey for a while. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/frank_seravalli/status/1729938645342105669?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1729938645342105669%7Ctwgr%5Eb7806ea1b156af7daf18805ec9aa2c0b7f53ad84%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rumeursdetransaction.com%2FCorey-Perry-connait-maintenant-sa-nouvelle-destination-305688'> </a></blockquote></div>
