The stretch where he was hurt, really showed his value. Don't forget, he spent a good portion of the year on the 2nd PP unit, without Getzlaf, and he still led the DUcks in PP goals. This is a kid who is a finisher. While it definitely helps him to play with a #1 center like Getz, IMO, I doubt his #s would drop off very much if he weren't attached to Getz' hip.<BR/><BR/>And apparently this is how Burke sold Perry on staying(Adam Brady's blog):<BR/><I>(Burke) also said he told Perry that if he signs a multi-million-dollar deal, he'll be dating girls in Orange County that "he used to be afraid to talk to when he was in junior high."</I>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27850362.post-3256758703662975822008-07-01T20:16:00.000-07:002008-07-01T20:16:00.000-07:00Stu "You talkin' to me?"
