Mandatory Credit: Kirby Lee-Imagn Images Los Angeles Kings forward Corey Perry will be sidelined six to eight weeks after undergoing knee surgery on Friday, the team announced.
Perry, 40, required surgery after sustaining an injury during a training skate on Friday.
The injury will cost the former Hart Trophy recipient all of training camp and potentially the first month of the regular season.
Perry, who signed a one-year, $2 million contract with Los Angeles this summer, recorded 30 points (19 goals, 11 assists) in 81 games last season with the Edmonton Oilers. He added 14 points (10 goals, four assists) during the team's run to the Stanley Cup Final.
A 2007 Stanley Cup champion with Anaheim, Perry has totaled 935 points (448 goals, 487 assists) in 1,392 career games with the Ducks, Dallas Stars, Montreal Canadiens, Tampa Bay Lightning, Chicago Blackhawks and Oilers.
Perry was selected by Anaheim with the 28th overall pick of the 2003 NHL Draft. He was with the Ducks from 2005-19.
