Parise said went through the league’s concussion procedural testing before he came back out to the bench for the third period.

Sounds like Parise narrowly escaped a concussion. The Devils' captain now has 27 goals and 56 points in 64 games which includes a hat trick last night. Keep a close eye on Parise as concussions can remain dormant for a few days.

I'm not sure, but it looks like Parise could be a center today between Kovalchuk and Palmieri.

Look for Parise to center the second line as coach Pete DeBoer juggles the lines. If Patrick Kane -- a natural center who also converted to wing at the NHL level -- can play a successful pivot for the Blackhawks, Why can't Parise. The Minneapolis, Minnesota scored three goal and four points over his first six games of the season.

The 27-year-old scored his first two goals of the season and anchored a penalty-killing unit that remained perfect as the Devils defeated the Hurricanes 4-2 to earn their first victory of the 2011-12 season.

As a former 45-goal scorer, taking Parise in the second or third round of your draft should prove to be a steal. At this point he's on pace for 82-goals, which is clearly unsustainable, but definitely helps elevate him back into the elite LW options.

The 27-year-old left wing had four preseason games and three weeks of training camp practices to shake off the rust and get used to game speed again. He admits it was a bit of an adjustment coming back after the long layoff.

Parise sounds ready for the regular season following the long layoff. In his last full season he scored 38 goals and 82 points. Look for similar production while manning the top line all season.

Parise, 27, becomes the ninth captain in Devils’ history. The captaincy had been vacant since Jamie Langenbrunner was traded to Dallas on Jan. 7.

Parise should certainly score more than last years totals where he produced only three goals and six points through 14 games. The Devils hope he remains a big part of their roster and return to the form that saw him score 30+ goals and 80+ points. Look for him to approach those totals, if healthy, over a full season.

Parise said he has had no issues with his knee during his preparation for the upcoming season, though. That preparation included working – as has in past off-seasons – with a power skating coach to improve his stride.

Feel free to draft Parise as the elite left wing he is. In his last full season, Parise netted 38 goals and finished with 82 points. He should be regarded as a third to fourth round pick -- a deep discount from last year's first round price tag.
