Parise Signs Multi-Year Extension

The Devils locked up Zach Parise for an extra four years at a cost of $3.125M per season. Not a bad price for their leading goal scorer (31) who will fill the LW spot on the Devils now defunct EGG line. Will it now be ZEG line? The PEG line?

Why an offer sheet wasn't extended to Parise, I don't know. Best guess, most teams knew it would cost them a whole lot of first-rounders to pry Parise away from the Devils. Especially since the Devils still have a good chunk of cap space left.
