Look at Dallas's Cap Central

They have no players and are desperate to get to the floor

Win/Win scenario for them....

It's never about the money with Jags. Good to see in this day and age.

You guys know that Minny's GM and coaching staff took Parise's agent to Parise's house? Thats a 3 hour drive from the airport...I wonder what conversations they had in that 3 hours.

I liked Ryan Whitneys twitter spar with a fan today. Whitney tweeted about how it's funny in Parise's rights to take his time and fan complained about how of course Whitney sided with the player. Whitney's reply was something about how Parise is making a life choice, not choosing a Happy Meal.

youd think he would want this done before the 4th of july and get all the media and stuff done with today and enjoy the rest of his summer. itd be stupid to announce it tomorow and make all these reporters miss time with their families to interview him and whatever. id say he announces a decision on july 5th

Parise's camp, while not completely ruling out decision tonight, says it will "probably be" Wednesday. Let's do this all again tomorrow, OK?

More transcripts from my bug at the Parise compound of the ongoing debate:
Zack (head in his hands, looking up at his agent): "OK, Pittsburgh it is"
Fiance of Parise (FOP): "But honeybear, the Mall of Ameri.."
Zack (cutting her off): Jesus! I don't want to hear anymore about the franking Mall of America!" You think they don't have malls in Pittsburgh?"
FOP: "But I talked to Jordan Staal's wife and she says that the malls there all suck. The parking is terrible and there isn't even a Nieman Marcus in Allegheny County. That's why she made him say he wanted to go to Carolina!"
Zack: (rolling his eyes) "Fine, I'll fly you to the Mall of America twice a month, OK sweatpea?"
FOP (batting her bedroom eyes and showing some leg): "I love you Zackey-Poo"
Zack, to his agent: "OK, call Ray Shero"
Agent: "You don't want to do that"
Zack (exasperated): "For Christ's sake why?"
Agent: Well, tomorrow is the 4th of July, and you are the best American hockey player. We'll wait to announce it tomorrow. It will be great. We'll drape you in the American flag and have the Pens brass hum America the Beautiful as you sign the contract.
Zack: "sounds like a little much"
Agent: "It'll be great, trust me"
Zack: "Whatever you say, its not like its my decision or anything"

Derek Roy, Whitney, Ryder possibly on second line in Dallas. Where does that put captain Morrow?

I'd welcome Brenden Morrow on the Pens! Then we sign Doan if we miss out on Parise...or just bring him even with Parise on board.

Kunitz - Crosby - Doan
Morrow - Malkin - Neal

or

Parise - Crosby - Morrow
Kunitz - Malkin - Neal

“@emptynetters: The Stars' top two projected centers - Jamie Benn and Derek Roy - are each left handed. What's Jagr going to do?”
- Gunner Staal




The funny part about that is that Flyer fans actually bought that line and tried to tell everyone that was why he signed with the Flyers last season. Yet anyone that has followed Jagr knows that he only goes where the money is.

I don't know why I came on here to see if Parise made a decision yet. I should have known better. Fool me once shame on you, fool me 3,843 times shame on me.
