Zach Parise is highlighted as one of the veterans who has retired, contributing to a leadership void in the Avalanche roster. His absence, along with other key figures like Andrew Cogliano and Jack Johnson, has left the team in need of experienced players, which is part of the reason Bellemare's return is viewed as crucial for maintaining team stability and leadership.

Zach Parise is no longer with the organization and was one of several forwards who took regular spots on the penalty kill. His absence adds to the roster challenges the Avalanche face as they seek to rebuild their special teams unit heading into the new season.

Zach Parise thrived as the top-line center for the Wild after signing a three-year, $10.5 million deal, quickly finding chemistry with ex-Devil Zach Parise.

Zach Parise recently signed a contract with the Colorado Avalanche and finished the season with significant statistics, including 12 goals, 5 assists, and a plus-15 rating in 76 games combined for two clubs.

Zach Parise, a player who has made an impact in the NHL and is part of a large group of Shattuck alums, is considered one of the best players in the world according to newly drafted player Will Zellers.
