Devils sign Zach Parise to one-year deal
The New Jersey Devils have reached an agreement with high-scoring left-winger Zach Parise on a one-year-contract.
In making the announcement late Friday afternoon, Devils president and general manager Lou Lamoriello said the two sides were continuing to work on a multi-year deal.
The Devils had filed for arbitration with Parise in June. He would have become an unrestricted free agent in 2012 had he not reached a new deal.
Parise earned US$5-million last season, a year in which he was limited to 13 games and three goals by a knee injury that required surgery. He had been the catalyst of the Devils' offence the previous four seasons, scoring 146 goals.
