Perry is expected to be sidelined for five months after undergoing knee surgery to repair meniscus and MCL injuries Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Perry was a late scratch from Monday's preseason matchup with Arizona due to an undisclosed injury, which was the first indication that he may be in danger of missing some time. However, at that point there was no reason to believe he'd be sidelined long term. If everything goes according to plan with his recovery, there will only be approximately 25 games remaining on the schedule when Perry's ready to return, so he should be avoided entirely in redraft leagues. With Perry no longer in the picture, Ondrej Kase now has a clear path to a permanent spot in Anaheim's top six.

Perry is minus-3 without any points through two games this preseason.
EDGE Analysis
It's an extremely limited sample size in the preseason, but Perry's value had already dipped substantially after his 17-goal and 32-assist output from last season put him below the 50-point mark for the first time since the lockout-shortened 2012-13 campaign. A perennial power-play contributor, Perry still projects for top-line duty, but burgeoning net-crashing winger Ondrej Kase could cut into his chances.

Perry compiled 17 goals, 49 points and 168 shots on goal in 71 games during 2017-18.
EDGE Analysis
Perry did miss 11 games with a knee injury he suffered in December, but this was the first non-lockout season since 2006-07 that he missed the 50-point mark. It was also his second straight season failing to post 30 goals, which is something he's done six times in his career. What Perry has lost in goals has been filled by dishing out helpers to talented linemate Rickard Rakell, who scored a career-high 34 goals at 24 years old.

Perry scored twice to complement a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Both tallies were compiled at even strength, as Perry's only halfway toward the 20 man-advantage points that he amassed in a full 2016-17 campaign. A knee injury sidelined the veteran for 11 straight games over the winter, but he's still been relatively productive when healthy based on 13 goals and 23 helpers in 5-on-5 situations. Long gone are his days averaging more points than games played, but the 32-year-old can still help many a fantasy owner down the stretch.

Perry scored in the second period of his team's 4-2 loss to St. Louis on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
The goal marked Perry's 15th of the season, and although that would be his lowest total in an 82-game season since he scored 17 goals in 2006-07, he's still a useful player to have in a spot starting position at this point in his career. A 50-point performance is not out of the question if he can come up with a strong final month.

Perry scored a pair of goals on three shots in a 6-3 victory over the Blackhawks on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
He isn't the player he once was, but Perry appears to be heating up for the stretch run with two goals and six points in the last three games. With a strong March, Perry can still reach the 20-goal and 50-point marks. That's far from competing for the Rocket Richard as he used to do, but he would be in the same neighborhood in terms of points and in fewer games than last season.

Perry distributed three assists in Sunday's shootout loss to the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
It was just the second appearance on the scoresheet in nine games for Perry, who is sitting on 36 points (12 goals) through 53 contests. The veteran forward has aided fantasy goers with 53 PIM and 127 shots on goal, making him worthy of a play in most formats. Expect the Ducks to rely on veterans such as Perry down the stretch as they try to secure another playoff berth.

Perry collected four assists (one on the power play) and six shots during Monday's 7-4 loss to Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran winger recorded just three goals and an assist through 11 games since returning from a knee injury Jan. 6, so fantasy owners have to be encouraged about Perry's huge showing Monday. The helpers improved him to nine goals and 21 assists through 43 games, as Perry has shown a dip in scoring the past two seasons after recording just 19 goals and 53 points during the 2016-17 campaign. He remains a solid option in most settings, but he's no longer the fantasy stalwart of his prime years.

Perry scored his eighth goal of the season and had an assist -- both on the power play -- in Tuesday's win over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Perry had been held off the scoresheet in four straight games, but he got back on track with the extra man against New York. He's currently skating on the fourth line, but Perry has been credited with nine shots on goal in his last two games and remains dangerous with the man advantage. His bottom-six role isn't ideal from a fantasy perspective, but he still has plenty to offer in fantasy leagues with 25 points and 36 PIM through 38 games.

Perry put three shots on net Saturday against the Flames after returning from missing 11 games with a knee injury.
EDGE Analysis
Perry also played 19:21, including 4:21 on the power play. As such, it seems like the veteran forward was ready and raring to go after a lengthy absence. His shooting has been down, he's put 67 shots on net in 32 games, so fantasy owners will have to hope the 32-year-old is able to find his old form now that he's healthy.
