I know, but I just worry that they are products of their environment. Suter teamed with Weber and Parise played in Jersey where even Gomez looked good....

Parise is a real mutha(frank)ing gamer.

I'm still trying to ponder what the (frank) a C-level prospect is and why the (frank) anybody would want one...

C probably refers to Cock.

Draw your own conclusions.

That doesn't make any sense.

Fact: Parise played with Niedermeyer and Stevens.

No wonder it's the deal breaker.

The LA Kings say hi.

Are you talking about the Richards and Carter or Doughty?

In the right environment long term contracts may work, I think 10 year contracts should be reserved for true franchise players. I don't think Suter and Parise are that.

Parise's production is due to NJ's defensive system

That doesn't make any sense.

Just saying that sometimes players are in a environment where they are successful. If they are removed from that they may not perform the same. And to commit to a 13 year contract for $90 million is nuts.

Parise is a stud. I don't get the hype on Suter. Seems like a Smyth/Briere/Drury/Gomez situation where the talent pool is not so deep.

Also, Keith got a 13 year contract (or something like that) now everyone is already saying he's "past his prime" despite another 10ish years left at almost $6M.

Stormey, rejoice!

The Leafs are getting Halak!

I like Parise but he was the 3rd highest scorer on Jersey, he would be an awesome addition to a team with a good core.

He's the spanish Hasek.
- hon_hon_hon

And some people still wonder why players fail in Toronto.

He's the spanish Hasek.

(frank) I'm still half asleep today.
I know he's the spanish Hasek...but read Marty post wrong and responded in an even more wrong fashion.

I should cut no code today.

anyway I hope so. The price can't be very high.....history suggests he's worth a 3rd or 4th liner.
