Veteran forward Corey Perry will make his Los Angeles Kings debut on Tuesday when his team takes on the St. Louis Blues.
Perry, 40, joined the Kings on a one-year, $2 million deal in the off-season.
The 6-foot-3 winger missed the first six games of the season after sustaining a knee injury during off-season training that required surgery.
