You know, I really, really like St Louis. A LOT. My first inclination was 'why not?'

But given your scoring stats, which are slightly goal-heavy, I'd be a bit non-inclined to do the deal.

Parise could very quickly get back to being a top goal-scorer. IE- 35-40 in a full year. St Louis simply isn't a huge goal guy - becoming a distributor par excellence, as evidenced by his 4 assists last night.

However, given your needs (bit soft on RW, stacked on LW) I wouldn't yell at you for making the deal b/c StLouis is a stud, and should be for a few more years.

But methinks your scoring DOES favour Parise. B
