Perron was forced from Saturday's game against the Wild late in the third period after taking a vicious cross check from Warren Peters, according to the Associated Press. He did not return.
Recommendation: He had earlier picked up an assist to stretch his current point streak to seven games and 10 points (seven goals, three assists). Peters received a misconduct for the hit, a violent two-hander across the earhole of Perron's helmet which snapped Perron's head and neck to the side and immediately dropped the winger to the ice. Perron's departure is obviously concerning for the Blues and fantasy owners everywhere. He had piled up 27 points in 33 games this season after missing almost a hundred games due to a concussion.
