P.A. Parenteau (NJD):

I have a special affinity for P.A. Parenteau.

In case you’re wondering why: He carried me to a fantasy hockey championship in 2012.

It was his years in Long Island that lead me to believe that he would be there for a long time.

So it puzzles me how he’s always on the trading block every year despite providing instant offense for every team he played for.

Except when he was in Montreal, but you can’t blame him for that. Knowing how picky Michel Therrien is with players.

Though Parenteau is now past his prime years, his constant production has gone to waste the past two seasons.

Playing for the league worst Toronto Maple Leafs in 2015-16 and now this season with another non-contending team in New Jersey.

That being said, he will be a great fit for a play-off bound team like Anaheim.
