Chicago said Perry’s suspension was not related to his relationship with Bedard’s mother.
The leadership of the National Hockey League (NHL) Chicago Blackhawks has weighed in on rumors that team forward Corey Perry was suspended due to a sex scandal. Information is available on the club’s YouTube channel.
Chicago general manager Kyle Davidson said the incident was not related to the team’s players or their families. “Any information that states otherwise can be considered false and, frankly, disgusting,” he said.
On November 29, Canucks Daily reported that the reason for the suspension was the affair of 38-year-old Perry with the mother of his teammate, the first pick of the NHL draft, 18-year-old Connor Bedard. It is noted that the connection between the forward and the woman could have occurred when the parents of the hockey players traveled with the team to matches of the NHL regular season.
Perry did not take part in Chicago’s two previous matches in a row – against Columbus (7:3) and Toronto (4:3 OT). He has been playing for the team since 2023. As a member of the Anaheim Ducks, the hockey player won the Stanley Cup in 2007.
