He punched above his weight class

Like everyone else so far, nothing to not like here; he really grew into his role over the season and will help lock-down that 4th line for years to come at a very reasonable rate

I love this extension! The AAV and term are team frindly. Kid has a lot of grit to his game and hits like a horse. He’s tough ro play against. Exactly what Avs need in a 4th line W/C. The points are a bonus and he will probably improve in that department.

No issue with this. He’s a solid 4th liner, kills penalties CAN play center. 1 – 2 million is probably the new norm for 4th liners. And he’s still only 26. There’s a chance he gets marginally better.

I was wondering about the AAV, and I’m very pleased with it. There’s a very high probability Parker outplays this contract and is a huge bargain for us the next five years! Smart piece of business.
