Perry dished out an assist in Monday's 2-1 loss to the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
Perry found Anze Kopitar on a second-period power play to bring the Kings back within one score. With the helper, Perry ended a three-game point drought and is up to 12 points through 14 games this season. Although his current offensive pace is unlikely to last -- he had 30 points in 81 regular-season outings with Edmonton in 2025-26 -- the 40-year-old winger still has some use in fantasy leagues, especially as long as he continues to log big minutes with the man advantage -- he's averaging 3:11 this year.

Perry scored a goal and provided a power-play assist in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Perry assisted his fellow NHL veteran of 20-plus years, Anze Kopitar, in the first period before scoring another game-tying goal himself later in the third. Perry has been electric to start the season with seven goals, four assists and 25 shots on goal in just 10 appearances. He hasn't been a point-per-game player since the 2013-14 campaign with the Ducks, so while this trend likely won't last, he could use this momentum to rocket his production above the 45-point mark for the first time since the 2017-18 season. The Kings have relied on the 40-year-old winger early on this season, as he's averaging over three minutes of power-play time per game. With at least one point in eight of his last nine games, Perry is a great streaming option in most fantasy formats and should be rostered in deep leagues unless his role changes.

Perry scored a goal on two shots and added five PIM in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
Perry briefly gave the Kings a 2-1 lead in the first period with his goal. The winger also got into a late scrap with A.J. Greer near the end of the contest. Perry continues to impress for the Kings, with his role looking like a power-play specialist. He's now at six goals, three assists, 24 shots on net and a plus-4 rating through nine appearances this season. As long as the production is there, he's worth consideration in fantasy as a waiver-wire pick-up.

Perry scored two goals on four shots, added two hits and went plus-2 in Thursday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
Perry scored at 17:47 of the third period, and he was credited with a deflection on a Quinton Byfield shot 40 seconds later on the game-tying goal. It's unclear if that second goal will stand as Perry's, but there's no denying his effectiveness in a net-front role. If it holds up as his, he has five goals and two assists through six appearances with the Kings, and he's added 12 shots on net and a plus-6 rating. The Kings dressed seven defensemen Thursday, allowing Perry to take a turn on the second line while Trevor Moore (personal) was unavailable.

Perry scored a goal on two shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Perry has had a remarkable start to his time with the Kings, picking up three goals and two assists over five appearances since returning from a knee surgery. The 40-year-old winger logged his first multi-point effort of 2025-26, scoring in the first period and setting up Jeff Malott's goal in the second. Perry has added eight shots on net and a plus-4 rating. He's on the fourth line at even strength, but his spot on the second power-play unit gives him a little extra fantasy value if this hot start on offense isn't a mirage.

Perry scored a goal in Saturday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Perry has scored in back-to-back games. The 40-year-old winger has added five shots on net and a plus-1 rating while filling a fourth-line role. Perry doesn't throw his body around much, but he should still get some PIM through his agitation skills. His power-play role on the first unit also provides some upside for fantasy managers, but it's tough to see him doing better than his 30-point campaign from the 2024-25 regular season.

Perry scored a power-play goal on three shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Perry's first goal as a King came against one of his former teams. The 40-year-old is expected to get a look as a net-front power-play option, which could help bolster his scoring numbers. His other assignment -- a fourth-line gig at even strength -- is unlikely to yield significant offense. He has a goal, four shots and two PIM through two appearances since returning from a knee injury that required surgery.

Perry (knee) will make his 2025-26 debut Tuesday in St. Louis, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Perry sustained a knee injury prior to the start of training camp and subsequently underwent surgery. The 40-year-old was placed on injured reserve Oct. 6, and he'll make his Kings debut Tuesday after missing the first six games of the season. The veteran winger will likely be eased into action, but he could eventually play a prominent role for a struggling Los Angeles squad that is 1-3-2 to begin the year.

Perry (knee) has been skating for about a week, John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio reports Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Perry still has hurdles to clear before being ready to play, but he seems to be progressing nicely. He was originally projected to be out 6-8 weeks after undergoing knee surgery Sept. 12. If that timetable holds, the more optimistic end of it would have Perry return around Oct. 25 in Nashville. He'll likely serve in a bottom-six capacity once he's ready.

Perry (knee) was put on injured reserve Monday, PuckPedia reports.
EDGE Analysis
Perry sustained a knee injury Sept. 12 while on the ice ahead of training camp, and he underwent surgery the following day. It's unclear how he's progressing in his recovery, but if his original recovery timeline of 6-8 weeks goes as planned, the veteran winger might be able to make his debut with the Kings sometime in late October.
