Report: Perry to sign 1-year deal with Stars

Veteran forward Corey Perry is expected to sign a one-year, $1.5-million deal with the Dallas Stars, according to TSN's Frank Seravalli. The deal is also expected to include performance bonuses for games played and playoffs.

The Edmonton Oilers were also rumored to be interested in the winger's services.

Perry underwent knee surgery last September and did not return to the lineup until February. The 34-year-old struggled when he was healthy, tallying six goals and 10 points in 31 games with the Anaheim Ducks.

The former Hart Trophy winner could still provide some offensive upside for the Stars, as Perry is just two years removed from a 17-goal, 49-point campaign.

The Ontario native was bought out by the Ducks on June 19 after spending the first 14 years of his career with the club.

The Stars also have a reported deal in place with free-agent forward Joe Pavelski.
