from Larry Brooks of the NY Post,
If Lamoriello cannot convince Parise to take the money the Devils will throw at him, if Parise is either unwilling or unable to commit to a lifetime of hockey as a Devil by late June, then the GM is going to have to hold an auction for his best player in order to secure as much young talent and as many high draft picks as possible as quickly as possible.
Parise has given no indication of where he believes his future lies, other than to say he has not decided a thing. Ordinarily, the Devils would allow the decision to be deferred into next season.
But given the extraordinary circumstances that have kneecapped the franchise, the Devils cannot take the risk Parise could go free without a return—or diminished return as a 2012 deadline rental—by permitting him to play out next year on a one-year salary arbitration contract.
