Perry scored twice and fired six shots on goal in Sunday's win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
That's back-to-back games with goals for Perry, who has 13 tallies in 34 games on the season. The Ducks may be last in the Western Conference right now, but if they turn things around in the second half of the season, Perry, who has scored six power-play goals this year, will likely play a key role. The 30-year-old is heating up, and with 23 points in 34 games, he makes for a strong fantasy play every night.

Perry skated 15:34 and didn't take a shot on goal or record a point in Monday's loss to the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
He did, however, pick up four penalty minutes, marking his first trip to the box in more than a month. After getting hot through November, Perry's been backsliding -- he hasn't registered a multi-point game since Nov. 24 has just one point (an assist) in his last four games. The Ducks will give him every opportunity to work it out, but it could be that at the age of 30, Perry's distinctly past his peak years. That doesn't mean he's not still a first-line talent, but he's clearly not one of the game's top few scorers anymore.

Perry hit double digits in goals for the 11th straight season with his goal in Sunday's contest versus the Pens.
EDGE Analysis
Perry's early second period goal at 4-on-4 helped get the Ducks on level terms before Chris Stewart scored the winner later in the frame. Perry now has three goals in his last four games and has once again show why he is an elite fantasy winger. Perry's next chance to get on the scoreboard will be when the Ducks take on the Carolina Hurricanes on Friday.

Perry scored a goal on five shots Wednesday against the Lightning, skating just 15:35 in the loss.
EDGE Analysis
All nine of Perry's goals have come in the last 15 games, yet the 30-year-old forward has inexplicably played less than 17 minutes in six of the last seven games. Perry's strong all-around performance in this one shows that he's still dangerous regardless of how much ice time he gets, but it's surprising that the offensively-challenged Ducks don't play their most established scorer more considering he's averaged over 18 minutes per game for each of the last seven seasons.

Perry scored his eighth of the season in Monday's 4-0 win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
His goal around the midway mark of the third helped to seal a victory for his team at home, their sixth of the season at Honda Center. After going goalless throughout the month of October, Perry now has eight goals and six assists in 14 games in November, numbers we're more accustomed to seeing from the former Hart Trophy winner. Now that his early season slump is officially over, use Perry as you normally would.

Perry scored twice on the power play and added an assist in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
Perry squeaked the first goal five-hole past Karri Ramo and was sprung on a breakaway by Ryan Getzlaf for the game-winning goal in the third period. After going all of October without a goal, the former MVP has seven goals in November. Still, the Ducks have been inconsistent and Perry's production has come in bunches this season. He finished plus-2 with six shots on goal in 16:42.

Perry put the puck into the net Friday night, but the Ducks were saddled with a 4-1 loss to the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
Perry was relentless in his quest to score Friday, poking the puck out of a large crowd of defenders and firing one home after his first attempt was blocked. It's that kind of effort that needs to continue for Perry, as the Ducks have been inept offensively this season. In fact, Anaheim has only scored 29 goals in 17 games, the lowest in the NHL -- Perry has five of those scores.

Perry doubled his season total in goals with a pair of tallies against the Oilers on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The former Rocket Richard trophy winner has struggled this season, but his second multi-point performance in the last four games certainly offers hope for the future. Perry now has 300 NHL goals to his name, and he's certainly not done despite his early-season struggles.

Perry scored the only goal of the game Saturday against the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
That's a three-game point streak for Perry, who has compiled two goals and three assists in that span. The 30-year-old is heating up after a slow start and should be in your lineup every game on an Anaheim team that has won four straight games.

Perry notched three assists in Friday's win over the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Perry benefited from the return of Ryan Getzlaf, who also had three assists Friday. Perry now has a goal and six points in his last five games after getting off to a slow start his season. The feisty 30-year-old has recorded at least two PIM in five straight games and appears to be hitting his stride on offense. Now that Getzlaf is back and the Ducks are riding a three-game winning streak, look for Perry to really take off.
