Ottawa Senators winger David Perron (personal) is not expected to play against Utah on Tuesday. He has left the team to attend to a personal matter. The veteran has struggled at the start of 2024-25, going scoreless in five games with a minus-four rating. Perron has been working on the third line and will be replaced by the returning Ridly Greig (upper body) in Tuesday's game. Greig is also expected to fill in for Perron on the second power-play unit. He will get his first chance to return on Friday versus Vegas.

Detroit Red Wings winger David Perron has served his six-game suspension and is eligible to return to action on Friday against Philadelphia. The veteran skated on the third line Friday morning with Andrew Copp and Michael Rasmussen. Detroit won only once during Perron's absence and has struggled lately, with seven losses suffered in eight games, so the team must be pleased to get some extra help. Perron's form hasn't been great this season, but he will add some oomph to the Red Wings attack. Through 26 outings, Perron has registered seven goals and six assists, logging most of his points (7) on the power play.

According to TSN's Pierre LeBrun, the NHLPA is expected to appeal David Perron's six-game suspension. The Red Wings winger was slapped with the suspension for cross-checking Ottawa's Artem Zub on Saturday. He served the first game of the punishment on Monday versus Dallas and will be eligible to return to action on Dec. 22 against Philadelphia. However, he could be back sooner if the Players' Association successfully appeals the suspension on Perron's behalf. The 35-year-old has struggled to perform up to his usual standards in 2023-24, averaging the fewest points since his rookie campaign. With 26 games played, he's notched seven goals and six assists.

Detroit Red Wings left wing David Perron finished with two power-play goals in Sunday's 4-1 victory against the Wild. Perron recorded his first multi-goal game of the season, while he reached the 300-goal mark for his NHL career. The veteran forward has totaled seven goals and 11 points through 20 games, which ranks fourth on the team in goals scored at the quarter mark of the season. Perron has consistently reached the 20-goal mark in recent seasons, and he remains a solid forward option in deeper fantasy formats.
