BREAKING: 1100-Game NHL Veteran Announces He Will Hang Up the Skates After This Season
In a candid interview today, 1100 game NHL veteran Zach Parise announced that this will be his last NHL season.
Parise, who signed a one-year deal with the Colorado Avalanche last month, will be done in the NHL after an illustrious career.
"Yeah, this is it," he said earlier this week in an interview with NHL.com's Tom Gulitti. "This is it."
Parise signed a one-year, $825,000 deal with the Colorado Avalanche as an unrestricted free agent in late January. He made his season debut when the Avs returned from the All-Star break and has chipped in with one goal in five games while averaging just under 13 minutes of ice time a night.
The 39-year-old said that he felt at peace with retiring after last season but changed his mind late in the summer.
"I got that itch once guys started to ramp their training up to get ready for camp," Parise added. "In the back of your mind, you're thinking, 'I can still play.'"
