Penguins Free Agency Update

Word around the league is buzzing that the Pittsburgh Penguins might be emerging as the favorites to sign Zach Parise. Pierre McGuire who is close to GM Ray Shero mentioned on TSN that Pittsburgh is growing confident of their chances to land Parise and speculation continues to run rampant of the great sales pitch Pittsburgh is making.

The Penguins as of a few hours ago were said to have made a 10 year offer to Parise but would be willing to maybe go as high as 12 years. The Penguins are said to be making a great sales pitch to lure Parise to Pittsburgh who has received calls from over 20 teams. To this point they are pleased with how things are going but a decision from Parise is not likely until tomorrow.
