Brendan Perlini was born in the United Kingdom on April 27th 1996. At an early age his family moved to Canada where he started to pick up hockey, and he was good at it.
He was so good in fact he was drafted 12th overall by the Phoenix (now Arizona) Coyotes. He’s a big bodied winger who plays a strong two-way game and has an excellent shot.
He struggled to find his place with the Arizona Coyotes, and was traded on November 25th 2018 along with Dylan Strome to the Blackhawks in exchange for Nick Schmaltz.
Time With Blackhawks
Dylan Strome stepped in right away and has been a crucial part of the Blackhawks 2nd line and their power play.
