Islanders Couldn't Get Deal Done For Zach Parise

Lou Lamoriello made a big splash by trading for JG Pageau and then extending him for a six-year contract. While that was the only move the New York Islanders made today, it didn't appear like that would be the case earlier on Deadline Day.

It was reported that Lou Lamoriello was pushing hard for Zach Parise. Parise, who is now 35 years old, was drafted by Lou in 2003 when he was the GM of the New Jersey Devils.

Despite his age, Parise is still a productive goal scorer in the NHL.
