Corey Perry has been to the Stanley Cup Finals multiple times in his career, but after recent footage surfaced, he's once again the target of jokes.
Reaching the Stanley Cup Finals is a rare achievement, but for Corey Perry, it's been a bittersweet experience. After winning with the Anaheim Ducks in 2007, Perry has returned to the Finals three times (2020 with Montreal, 2022 with Tampa Bay, and 2024 with Edmonton), only to fall short each time.
Now, footage from the Oilers' locker room after their Game 7 loss to the Florida Panthers has emerged. While many fans sympathized with the tough defeat, others couldn't resist poking fun at Perry.
At 39, Perry is back with Edmonton for the 2024-25 season, with the team once again favored to win it all. But with Perry on board, some are jokingly wondering if the Oilers are cursed. With Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl leading the way, there's plenty of optimism, but if they fall short again, Perry might be remembered as one of the unluckiest players in NHL history.
