Can we please...PRETTY please...add Zach Parise to the Minnesota Wild roster? Actually, the Wild ARE planning on pursuing him. He's just not that excited about it. He's up for free agency next month and wants to sign with the New Jersey Devils. He's even told the New York Rangers know that he's not interested - not that that's super surprising, he might just not like the Rangers, right? Here's five GREAT reasons for Parise to consider coming to play for Minnesota:
1. He could be a superstar. Minnesota fans are known for latching on and being overly supportive of star players. He could BE that player.
2. Minnesota is the State of Hockey. Our population is made up of people that have the sport in their blood. Aka he'd never be lacking for a game to go to, a mite team to sponsor or a smattering of adoring fans.
3. The Xcel Energy Center was ranked the best arena in the US. Who wouldn't want to play there??
4. We have great team colors and uniforms - even if they ARE Christmas colors, they look good on just about any player. Much better than the bright red and ugly logo of the NJ Devils.
5. He's FROM Minnesota. AKA Total Built-in Fan Base. Joe Mauer, anyone?
