Mutual = both parties agree. Perry had to agree for his contract to be terminated. He could have said no and sat home while getting paid.
I know what mutual means.

If his knees are a consistent problem then he’s ripe for “Robidas Island”. Stick him on permanent LTIR then plop him on the desk to bicker with Botterill every game.I know what mutual means.
Where did you hear that? Doesn't say anything about him agreeing.

Can't see why Reaves would agree.
A contract can be terminated mutually (both team and player agree to part ways, usually you see that when a player doesn't want to be in the minor leagues and wants to go to Europe, and the team agrees to let them go) or terminated, usually for a breach of contract (which is often behaviour-related or for a failure to report).
Sounds to me like Perry agreed in order to avoid further embarrassment from the scandal. Enforcing something like a morals clause would have to involve the PA or some kind of hearing if Perry wanted to fight it.I know what mutual means.

Yeah I didn't think he agreed or needed to, he violated his contract and it was terminated.
Why wouldn't it make sense for Reaves if he wanted to stop playing while still getting all his money?
Correct, but in that case Uncle Leo agreed to the termination. The difference is that in Perry's case I suspect that he simply chose to not object to the termination. Small distinction, but ultimately the same result.
I doubt very much Reaves could sign anywhere else for the money he gets here which is why he would never agree to a termination.
i think the poster said if he agreed to termination as a player, the leafs could just sign him to be the music guy or whatever they want to so he will still get paid but just not towards the cap so he would still get his money.
Apparently Komarov signed for about $1M to play in the KHL as opposed to getting $3M to play for the Isles minor league team.
He was only making 2m, and he had already been paid some of it. It was also a completely unique situation.
