The Chicago Blackhawks said veteran forward Corey Perry will be away from the team for "the foreseeable future."

Perry, 38, hasn't played in Chicago's past two games and didn't practice with the Blackhawks this week.

"He's away from the team and will remain so for the foreseeable future," GM Kyle Davidson said Saturday. "We're unable to provide any update on that front."

The decision to send Perry away from the team was made by management, Davidson said.
