Does anyone know if parise's agent has a twitter? I remember following kovy's agent Grossman during his contract saga and he tweeted a couple times towards the beginning it which gave some insight into how the situation was going.
He doesnt. Not a lot of them do.

Also does parise have two agents? I know wade arnott is one, but some people were saying he is meeting with Meehan today? Who is that?
Meehan is an agent and he's listed as Zach's on Wikipedia and I read a tweet from Todd Cordell that says he asked "Parise's agent Don Meehan" about Zach recently. He must have two.
I thought maybe he was Suter's as well, but hes not.

So it's one company, and Meehan is the heavy hitter at it, so he's stepping in to make sure they do their best job with Parise.

^ well that answers that. I guess its a good thing for Zach if Meehan gets involved lol
You would expect the head of the agency to be involved in any major contract negotiations.

Random, likely irrelevant question, but who was Parise's agent that negotiated his first contract? The one that was actually pretty bad for Zach?
Think Zach fired him as well, not sure though.
It was about as good as one in his position could expect. As a RFA he had very little leverage, and he didn't have his 45 goal season until afterwards. Only the Stamkos's and Doughtys of the world tend to get much more.

if you think of all recent contracts who took either forever to settle or gave heartburns to the fans... Stamkos, Webber, Parise, doughty... Meehan is behind all of them

Neil Abbott. And yes, he was fired.

It was pretty damn bad. The contract didn't really anticipate the rising salary cap. Zach had no arbitration rights but still, compared to the contract Zajac signed, it's way worse.

Arnott and Meehan work for the same company. See above.

In fact, I think people respect Elias a lot for deciding to stay even after getting all of those offers.
