JohnnyP. Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 EJ Hradek: For nervous Devils fans, I believe there's still a good chance that Parise stays in NJ. Stay tuned . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SterioDesign Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 (edited) per todd cordel Devils will be apart of final decision I'm told. Parise in process of eliminating MIN or PIT....Final two expected to be MIN - NJ or PIT-NJ edit: well thats really good IMO Edited July 2, 2012 by SterioDesign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'7' Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 (edited) I don't put much stock in these tweets...things change so rapidly. Mystery teams can appear at the last second with massive offers, odd things can happen (hey A-Rod was a Red Sox right?)

'7' Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 (edited) Does Zach want to be 3rd fiddle in Pittsburgh or The Man here? Also if Suter to Detroit hits a snag they're going to turn around and go after Parise hard. DO NOT discount Detroit Edited July 2, 2012 by '7' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I really don't know anything lol.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also if Suter to Detroit hits a snag they're going to turn around and go after Parise hard. DO NOT discount Detroit That's what I'm thinking. How do you go from the Captain of a team to a third wheel. Money talks, but that wouldn't sit right with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between Minnesota and us, I say Minnesota. Between Pittsburgh and us, I think he stays. Does Zach want to be 3rd fiddle in Pittsburgh or The Man here?

Devilsfan118 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I would just be very surprised if he picks Minny. Unless he has the fiance breating down his neck to go 'home', it just doesn't make sense (unless he would seriously be averaging 10m/year). He won't see a winning team there for at least a few years.

devilsadvoc8 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 For me I am the opposite of a previous poster. While I would hate for him to go to the Pens, that is an organization with a strong player base and would be a heavy cup favorite. To me, going to Minny would be a simple money grab.

'7' Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Yea, the state of the team should deter Zach from signing with the Wild. I understand it's home, but when you're about to get as much money as he is...you can afford plenty of trips back home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between Pittsburgh and us, I think he stays. Minny would be about his home/family and money... all the wild has for the last few years or actually always had is promises and excuses. year after year. They have good prospects coming but thats up in the air if they'll translate in the NHL and be succesful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yort44 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Zach.. think on this. Tweeted by Button: Last season & a half in NHL, 123 games played. New Jersey: 76-38-9, 161 points. Vancouver: 78-33-12, 168 points. Best teams in East & West Come win HERE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SterioDesign Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Єklund (2.3% accurate) Chicago is a major player for Parise. (e4) lol ah wtf EK lol fvck this guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobilly45 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Tom Gulitti@TGfireandice Brodeur said he spoke Parise again this morning and "the Devils are right in there for him." hopefully brodeur can convince him to stay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayday Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I wonder if Lou gathered a bunch of guys like Robinson, Stevens, Marty (he did), and maybe a guy like Shannahan or Niedermayer to convince him to stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagknife Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 @CraigJButton: So with Devils having such a superb record the past 1 ½ seasons, is there a better place for Zach Parise to have a chance to win than NJ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagknife Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Apparently (take with a grain of salt) Parise just landed in Buffalo and was seen at Buffalo-Niagara International. I really don't know if I believe it but like Єklund (2.3% accurate), figured I'd share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shannahan will offer immunity for the first 2 boarding calls Zach receives under the new contract. no suspensions or fines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
