So yeah the Parise buyout from my understanding is that next season he costs the Wild 2 million and change the following season 6 million and change and the next two seasons believe Parise buyout would be his regular cap hit against the cap. I think it does account for the recapture. I really don't see Zach playing once his contract drops after the 21\ 22 season. Because of the Covid seasons players are being hit with escrow so they have to pay portions of their salaries back. Parise is a proud player and as much as it frustrates us to watch him struggle, I'm sure it pisses him off more. So I think once his salary significantly drops he just goes to the Wild and says my back is hurting again and he goes LTIR to finish the contract. I think that approach is a better option for the Wild than buying him out.
