A powerful statement by Georges Laraque about Corey Perry: He knows exactly what happened
It will be years before we learn the real reason Corey Perry was waived and his contract was terminated, and the mystery surrounding it will remain unsolved.
Georges Laraque, a former Montreal Canadien, was on Tony Marinaro's Podcast and mentioned he had a reliable source who knew what happened.
During the era when the role of enforcer was still relevant and a fan favorite, Laraque played the old-school enforcer.
»I know exactly what happened there. I'm going to be careful about what I say because I don't want to be sued. This has nothing to do with Connor Bedard or his mother. I can confirm it to you. The only thing I can say on air is that I understand why the Blackhawks had to make this decision and any other team in the NHL would have done the exact same thing. The reason why I can't say what happened is that I could be sued for defamation but many media outlets and journalists also know exactly what happened." -
Georges Laraque Due to his career, Likely has many connections to NHL front offices and journalists across the league.
