The Perth Blue Wings are a Canadian Junior ice hockey team based in Perth, Ontario. They formerly played in the Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League. The Blue Wings transitioned to private ownership in May 2013 under Michael McLean, the former owner of the Smiths Falls Bears. Following the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, McLean sold the franchise to local buyers Bryan Greer and Jeffrey Choffe for an estimated $750,000 CAD. In September 2024, the team was acquired by investor and current Smiths Falls Bears owner Joshua Filoso.


Between 2014-15 and the end of the 2019-2020 seasons, the EOJHL and the CCHL set a new agreement in an attempt to create a better player development model. This resulted in the league re-branding itself as the Central Canada Hockey League Tier 2 (CCHL2), and shrinking to 16 teams and two divisions. The league reverted to the Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League for 2021. The league also went from 4 divisions to 2 divisions and the Blue Wings were assigned to the Richardson Division.


The Perth Blue Wings won the Barkley Cup in 2019 and then again in 2023.
