Corey Perry Accidentally Leaks Crucial Blackhawks Organizational Move
Throughout his lengthy career, veteran winger Corey Perry has worn No. 10 at every given opportunity, but now, he's revealed that the Blackhawks, despite having the number available wouldn't give it to him.
A veteran winger
This move certainly doesn't come as a result of Perry's lack of authority and respect, as he's earned that throughout his career, but it may have ultimately been a major spoiler from the veteran.
Instead, Perry went with the No. 94 as he looks to join with Taylor Hall and young star Connor Bedard to make a playoff push in 2023-24, but now, the question is, what are Chicago doing with that number?
Retirement coming?
The Blackhawks are an original six team in the NHL, but over their time in the NHL, they've retired just six numbers, but given who wore No. 10 for them over the past 17 seasons, it appears another will be added to that list.
The player wearing that number was Patrick Sharp, who was with the team from 2006 to 2018, playing in 749 games while scoring 249 goals and 532 points while leading them to three Stanley Cups with his incredible playoff performances, and while nothing is official, things could certainly be heading that way soon.
