Zach Parise is gearing up for a comeback in the NHL, and it's not with his former team.
He's eyeing a stint with the Colorado Avalanche, as reported by Michael Russo of The Athletic.
At 39, Parise hasn't hit the ice this season, but he's no stranger to the NHL, having played 1224 games across the New Jersey Devils, Minnesota Wild, and New York Islanders. His stats are nothing to scoff at – 429 goals and 450 assists, totaling 879 points.
Joining the Avalanche could be Parise's ticket to a run at the Stanley Cup, bringing some much-needed scoring depth to Colorado.
Plus, with plans to play just half the season, he's expected to bring in a fresh perspective and some extra energy to the squad. Stay tuned for more on this potential comeback story.
