Corey Perry was hoping for a strong start to his tenure with the Dallas Stars, but in what should have been an exciting day for the 34-year-old former Hart Trophy Winner, it appears the injury bug has hit him once again.

Per Mike Heika, of the Dallas Stars Website, Stars GM Jim Nill has confirmed on Friday that Perry is down with an apparent small foot fracture, which will need to be re-evaluated in 2 weeks. This unfortunate and ill-timed injury should have Perry sidelined for the entirety of training camp.

According to Heika, Perry rolled his foot during a misstep on Wednesday. The hits just keep on coming for Perry, who is hoping to revive his career with the Stars this season after missing the first four months last season after undergoing surgery on his knee.
