It's a one year deal. Who cares. Parise has a high cap value with a low
salary. This just evens it out.

I'll start off by saying I was a PROlik back in the day. I felt that
when he was at his best, he was great. When he wasn't putting up the
offense, at least he was still hitting and responsible defensively. I
understand why the NOliks felt the way they did.
I'm not thrilled about him being back, EXCEPT for the fact that the
first game against the Rangers, he can go out there against Gomez and
maybe lay him out. Somebody should have done it last season, but nobody did.

Look at it this way....we'll see some Holikian quotes again, which always
delight - right? HAHA!!

"Some Devils fan may hold a grudge.
"Fans in New Jersey are somewhat spoiled," Holik said. "I don't mean it in a
bad way. They want their team to be successful. If I give them my best and
make the team better, that's all they want. Yeah, there are going to be
people who have opinions. I have my own opinions."
And, like Rolston, that is the belief that the Devils can win it all."

"I just took a pay cut," said Holik, who made $4.25 million last season.

Rolston, who had offers from 17 NHL teams, was thrilled and signed a
four-year, $20 million deal with the Devils.
"I'm very very excited to be going back to New Jersey," Rolston said. "I
started my career there."

Grudges dissipate with performance, Bobby, keep that in mind and you
will be fine.
