Plenty of people are going to throw their hat in the ring on this topic, so I thought I might do the same. Though I'm a black-and-gold bleeding Pittsburgh native, I became something of a bandwagon Devils' fan after the Penguins were dismissed in the first round of the playoffs; though I've traditionally had nothing but disdain for the team, it's hard not to pull for the likes of Kovy and Zach Parise.

Aside from that, I'm a huge Team USA supporter, so obviously I have a keen interest on what happens with Zach Parise. I don't usually cover non-Penguins' topics, but again where Parise lands could have a major impact on the Penguins' future (to say nothing of the Devils').

The article is linked below. The content on the rest of my site is R-rated (or worse), but I keep the hockey articles PG-13. Just a warning for the kids.
