Tampa Bay Lightning Corey Perry Injury Update
The Tampa Bay Lightning Player Corey Perry is fit and ready to play in the next match after being injured in an unfortunate way last month. There has been no news of Corey having any relapse in his injury.
He had a severe cut over his right eye during pregame warmups for Game 2 of the team’s series against the Florida Panthers on Thursday night, but it didn’t affect him once the puck dropped.
Thus, we consider that he has fully healed from it and learned from his mistake.
Tampa Bay Lightning will face the New York Rangers, and Perry, who plays as a striker, is already focusing on beating the goalie (Igor Shesterkin) of his opponents as he knows that Igor is very talented and will stop any shots that he sees coming.
