Koivu clone? #9 and team Captain? Zach Parise
Bruce Bennett/Getty Images

Sunday, as one of the Hockey Day in America premier games on NBC, the Boston Bruins visited the Minnesota Wild. In the national spotlight, the Wild, led by goalie Niklas Backstrom had one of their best games of the season, collectively.

Backstrom, the embattled net-minder had a career-high 48 saves en route to a stunning 2-0 win over the reigning Stanley Cup Champions at home in St Paul. Wild fans were no doubt wondering where this level of performance had been all season, and why he chose to showcase his enigmatic talent on this big stage against one of the most complete teams in the league.

Keep in mind that for whatever reason, according to NBC Sports, Minnesota boasts a 9-1-1 record against them all time.

If you watched the game, you no doubt saw the second intermission piece on famed hockey powerhouse prep school, Shattuck-St. Mary’s, in Faribault, Minnesota. Home to many NHL alumni such as Sidney Crosby, Ty Conklin, Jonathan Toews and Joe Corvo, as well as former actor Marlon Brando. But the alum most Minnesota Wild fans have had their eyes on for years is unrestricted-free-agent-to-be Zach Parise, who for whatever reason, still hasn’t signed a long term extension with the New Jersey Devils.

The longer this bizarre dance goes on, the most hope and faith the Wild will have of actually bringing his elite services back home where they belong. Parise, whose father played in the 1980’s for the old Minnesota North Stars, is a Minneapolis native and played junior hockey for the Elk River Elks, as he grew up in Elk River, home to many former NHLers. 

8 years and $80M weren’t enough for Gaborik who simply wanted to move on

These facts, combined with the fact he already spends his summers in Minnesota and recently bought a house—that we were told immediately to “not think anything of”—all contribute to the overwhelming rationale that Parise could soon be coming home when he hits free agency July 1, a date most Wild fans circle on calendars and have memorized by heart.

Parise could be the second coming of Marian Gaborik

Now, this is not the first time I’ve written on the hopeful reunion of Parise back home.. Many fans just expect it. Others like me know it would be a perfect fit. I know I’ve used this “Gaborik=Parise” parallel before with Dany Heatley, who has so far been an extreme disappointment after so much initial hype.

But in Parise’s case, he’s a home-state kid whose presence would sell tickets and get Xcel Energy Center’s vibes back to the early days of the franchise where they sold out games on a nightly basis for seven consecutive years.

Is Parise a superstar like Gaborik is? No. Despite his medal-winning fame and Olympic credentials, along with his All-Star nods, I don’t think he’s in Gaborik’s class—but he is that next rung down, and he’s above Heatley, to give you some perspective.

So, if he’s not a superstar, why all the fuss over some random Minnesota kid?

First off, unlike Gaborik, who was a moody player, Parise’s a leader, and he does the little things to win that Wild fans expected of Heatley.

Chad Rau, the epitome of a hard working Minnesota kid

Next, he’s probably the most accomplished Minnesotan currently playing in the NHL and one that still has youth on his side in which to actually get better.

Unlike Bloomington’s Mark Parrish who we signed years ago and who was a flop—and whom we are still paying $928,000 for the next three seasons even though he hasn’t been in the league for years—Parise shouldn’t flame out, as we aren’t getting him on the downside of his career.

Next, this roster has five Minnesotans: Fridley’s Jared Palmer, Elk River’s Nate Prosser—whom the team just signed to a 2-year extension—and Chad Rau, Virginia’s Matt Cullen and Apple Valley’s Mike Lundin. I am fairly confident that this is a franchise-high for Minnesotans at any one time, and that alone would give Parise a strong support network. Not to mention ease the pressure of playing at home since he wouldn’t be doing it alone like Parrish essentially was.

Minnesota Wild forums: Endless debate, “More or less Minnesotans on the roster?”

If you ever visit the official Minnesota Wild message boards at www.wild.com, and stick around long enough, particularly though a losing streak, the annual debate is sure to come up about whether or not the team should go all-in and sign as many Minnesota-born players as they can in order to appease fans, but also to perhaps try and win with players who clearly know how to play the game.

I am always in the camp that says, “Yes, go all out and intentionally sign your own.” Growing up in Minnesota gives them unique advantages that other players don’t have.

There is a reason Minnesota has produced more players than any other state, with 216 NHLers over the years. According to an earlier comment made on VERSUS against the Pittsburgh Penguins this year, no state has more current NHL players than Minnesota’s 38, either.

There is a reason Paul Martin, Tomas Vanek, Jordan Leopold, Erik Johnson, and Alex Goligoski aren’t just good serviceable NHL players, but some of the best who go on to have very long careers. Its because they learn the fundamentals in Minnesota which are easily adaptable anywhere in the league.

As much as I am hoping Parise comes home, it would almost seem just as fitting if one day before their careers are over, each of the above don the green and white of the home club for at least a single season.

When the Wild lost Gaborik, they lost flash, swagger, scoring ability and All-Star hype, all of which Parise can return if he just comes home. He would give the team its best and most consistent chance at being the 40-goal scorer Gaborik was.

It’s no coincidence that, since he left three years ago, the team has looked lost and lacked direction and has struggled without the playoffs since.

During the 2003 Western Conference Finals Stanley Cup run, former Vancouver Canucks General Manager, and Edina, Minnesota native, Brian Burke famously declared of the Wild fans who his team would go on to lose to in the semi-finals: “That’s not a fan base, its a cult,” to which many Wild fans proudly ran with as a badge of honor.

Well—come on home Zach, join the “cult.” We are waiting for you with open arms ready to welcome back our native son.

After all, there has got to be a reason New Jersey hasn’t shown you the same love we can and which has always been here.

When Greg Davis had Vince Young and Colt McCoy under center at Texas, he was considered a very good offensive coordinator.  When he didn’t, he wasn’t and subsequently “parted ways” with UT after Year 1 of the post-Young/McCoy era.

Now, we’ll reportedly get the chance to see whether the Longhorns’ loss after the 2010 season will be a Big Ten school’s gain in the upcoming season.

While it’s not yet official, Kirk Bohls of the Austin American-Statesman has confirmed that Davis has accepted an offer to become the offensive coordinator at Iowa.  The report seemingly confirmed speculation that had arisen in recent days that Davis was a front-runner for the job.

An announcement could come as early as this evening.  Davis would replace Ken O’Keefe, who left the Hawkeyes after 13 seasons to coach wide receivers with the Miami Dolphins.

Like O’Keefe, Davis had been at his job for 13 years — 15 straight years with Mack Brown when two seasons at North Carolina are added in — before stepping down shortly after the end of the 2010 regular season.  During his final season at UT, and with Garrett Gilbert as the starting quarterback, the Longhorns finished 88th in the country at 23.7 points per game.

From the time Young became the full-time starter midway through the 2003 season through McCoy’s final year in 2009, UT never finished lower than 14th in that category or scored fewer than 35.2 ppg over an entire season.  Three times in those seven seasons UT’s offense averaged over 41 ppg, including 50.1 during the 2005 season.

GOODYEAR, Ariz. — Aroldis Chapman will be tested as a starter this spring by the Cincinnati Reds.

The 24-year old lefthander whose pitches have been clocked at 105 mph has a 6-3 record with a 3.27 ERA in 69 relief appearances over the last two seasons with Cincinnati.

But the small-market Reds want to see if they can maximize their uncharacteristic $30 million investment.

Chapman

“We are going to stretch him out,” manager Dusty Baker said. “We are going to see if there is enough time and he can do it. If there isn’t enough time or quality, we can send him back to the bullpen.”

Chapman was supposed to pitch in the Arizona Fall League as a starter, and then in one of the Puerto Rican winter leagues. But shoulder soreness canceled the plan.

“We would have the answers by now,” Baker said, “if things went according to plan.”

Now, it’s up to the spring training results.

“I worked hard all winter to get myself mentally and physically prepared to be a starter,” Chapman said through an interpreter. “I have been here for 2½ weeks to be prepared.”

Along the way, Chapman’s shoulder received the rest it needed.

“I feel,” he said, “that I’m in good shape.”

If he is unable to prove himself as a starter, Baker and the Reds have a backup plan.

“A lot depends on how he does, but it also depends on our needs,” the manager said. “If he doesn’t make the rotation, we could send him to (Triple-A) Louisville. But I wouldn’t be opposed to having three lefthanders in our bullpen.”

Chapman had 71 strikeouts last season, and has 90 for his career.

“If they make the decision to put me in the bullpen,” he said, “I will continue to work hard to prove that I can be a starter and work all the innings they want me to.”

Chapman is the lone lefthanded candidate for the starting rotation, but that is no guarantee that it will sway his manager.

“You prefer a lefty in your rotation, but you want to go with your five best starters,” Baker said. “A good righty is better than a bad lefty.”

Still, the Reds — as well as Chapman — are hoping for a successful transformation.

“One of the reasons we want him to start,” Baker said, “is last year, we scuffled for a starter when Johnny (Cueto) and Homer (Bailey) were hurt.”

The Reds, a year after making the postseason, went a disappointing 79-83 last season, finishing in third place of the National League Central division.

Doesn’t seem like long ago that the epicenter of the NBA was located in hotel conference rooms around Manhattan, where league officials and union reps were grappling over BRI and so-called system issues. The lockout ended, thankfully, but what we have been left with is a very bizarre and unpredictable regular season that is, suddenly, halfway over. Here’s what’s stood out so far:

Three first-half surprises

Jeremy Lin hasn’t simply energized the Knicks—he has taken the league by storm. (AP Photo)

1. Jeremy Lin can play. The emergence of Lin has become a story that has extended well beyond the NBA. We can parse the state of the Knicks all we want, comment on whether Lin saved Mike D’Antoni’s job, debate whether Carmelo Anthony can fit into the offense or even put Lin into a wider cultural context, but we should not lose sight of the sheer unlikelihood of Lin’s story—undrafted signee out of Harvard, cut by the Warriors, cut by the Rockets, nearly cut by the floundering Knicks. And of course, given an opportunity out of New York’s desperation, he became one of the NBA’s most recognizable players over a two-week span.

“What else can you say?” guard Landry Fields said. “He is doing a phenomenal job.”

2. The Spurs are still relevant. After last season’s first-round playoff ouster by the eighth-seeded Grizzlies, it looked like the aging Spurs were heading into the sunset. The early January injury to Manu Ginobili seemed to reinforce that. But, credit general manager R.C. Buford and coach Gregg Popovich—they just have a way of identifying players who can help them, guys like Tiago Splitter, Danny Green, Kawhi Leonard, DeJuan Blair, Gary Neal, Matt Bonner.

“I don’t think anyone could have predicted they would be where they are,” TNT analyst Steve Kerr said. “It is just a testament to how strong that organization is.”

3. Dwight Howard is still in Orlando. Shortly after the Hornets shipped Chris Paul to the Clippers in December, it seemed only a matter of days until the Magic found a trade for their own disgruntled star. But Howard has not gone anywhere, and the Magic now are holding out the possibility of keeping him, especially with the team playing better lately and looking like one of the top three teams in the East.

Three first-half disappointments

1. The Celtics. Given their age and the preseason news that forward Jeff Green would require heart surgery, the Celtics were expected to take a step backward. But they’ve taken more than one step backward and, at times, have simply looked awful. The defense has been inconsistent, and the offense has been disjointed and plagued by turnovers.

This puts team president Danny Ainge in a tough predicament. It may be time to ship out some combination of the Celtics’ Big Three—Ray Allen, Kevin Garnett or Paul Pierce—but Ainge wants to protect the team’s cap space and probably would not get much of a return for his aging veterans. He would get a return on point guard Rajon Rondo, but Rondo is an All-Star caliber point guard around whom the Celtics would like to build.

The team is suffering in the short term, and the long term is not looking much better.

2. Lockoutball. Scoring is down significantly. Shooting is down, too. Injuries are up.

When the league announced its compressed 66-game schedule in the wake of the resolution of the lockout, it was clear that coaches would have to reach deep into their benches and that the stress of the schedule would put pressure on players, mentally and physically. But the level of play has been far worse than expected, and several star players—Dirk Nowitzki, Dwyane Wade, Manu Ginobili, Derrick Rose, Zach Randolph—have missed significant time for health reasons.

3. Brooklynites-to-be. The Nets are ramping up for their long-awaited move from New Jersey to Brooklyn, backed by billionaire Russian Mikhail Prokhorov and music mogul Jay-Z. Everything is in place for a franchise revitalization—except, of course, a decent roster.

The Nets hoped to begin building up to their move by pairing another star player (Howard being the obvious preference) with point guard Deron Williams. But Brook Lopez, expected to be one of the lynchpins to a Howard deal, got hurt, Howard has been taken off the trade block, and Williams is heading toward free agency with a team that is 10-24 and bound for the lottery.

The Nets need someone to put on their Brooklyn billboards. It might wind up being Anthony Morrow.

Three contenders update

1. Miami. The Heat had a few early blips. First was health, but by sitting Dwyane Wade for two weeks in January, they got themselves back to full strength. Second was zone defenses, but the more Miami has seen teams take this tack, the better they’ve become at attacking it.

2. Oklahoma City. The Thunder have had a pretty consistent problem—their interior defenders are very good individually but have struggled to play team defense, and the big guys offer very little offensively. Kendrick Perkins, Serge Ibaka, Nick Collison and Nazr Mohammed average fewer than 20 points per game combined, and the Thunder allow 42.6 points in the paint per game, 25th in the league.

3. Chicago. Coach Tom Thibodeau remains among the best at ensuring that his entire roster is ready no matter what injuries come up. But the Bulls have had some important ones—Rose, who has dealt with toe and back issues, and shooting guard Richard Hamilton, who has played just 11 games because of a groin injury. Getting some chemistry together with Hamilton, who could be the key to the Bulls’ title hopes, is an issue for Thibodeau.
