With easy passing victory, and being one step closer to a Stanley Cup, the chances of Zach Parise leaving the New Jersey Devils appear that much slimmer.
Why would Parise leave?
If he’s looking for a team that’s a Stanley Cup contender…well, he’s on a team that’s one game away from playing for the Stanley Cup.
There’s a good base of talent on the Devils, and management has always done a good job of filtering young talent into the lineup.
The issue of the Devils’ financial problems is valid. But I can’t help but believe the Devils can work around the issue, especially with a significant amount of salary coming off the books.
The Devils are an organization that tend to keep players they want. Parise fits that description, and with each victory, it’s becoming hard to think he’ll reach free agency.
