Quoting: Dantares24
I think you have the right idea for the type of contract Parise will get. He looked washed up for long stretches this last season, but then when coming back after being scratched and when he finally got in the playoffs he was obviously motivated and played pretty well. I also think it's just as likely he could end up in Vegas to be reunited with DeBoer.
Parise is an interesting player. Especially his time in Minny. After almost 4 quality seasons, he missed the end of the 2015-16 season and the 2016 playoffs due to injury. He didn't have a good 2016-17 season and spend the first half of the 2017-18 season not playing due to injury and again mediocre production. In the 2018-19 season he proved he wasn't washed and had a great season. He did take a step back in the 2015-16 season, but still scored 25 goals. Honestly I wasn't expecting such a drop-off in production. Yes he would be pushed down the depth chart but I still expected him to get something like 15 goals and 32 points if he played all 56 games. His goal scoring rate had been less than 20 goals and even less than 15 goals. Only 7 goals in 45 games. Parise seems to play and is more noticeable in the playoffs.
2021 playoffs: 3 points in 4 games after being scratched in the first 3 including 2 goals
2020 playoffs: 3 apples in 4 games and he could've scored multiple goals
2018 playoffs: 3 goals in 3 games
2017 playoffs: 3 points in 5 games including 2 goals
2015 playoffs: 10 points in 10 games
2014 playoffs: 14 points in 13 games
2013 playoffs: only 1 goal, but it was against the President Trophy Hawks
