They will....they will sign Suter as well as Parise. That's my prediction.

In a sad note, Vladimir Krutov, the "K" in the Soviet Union's famed KLM line, died today at age 52. While he played only one uneventful season in the NHL, he was part of one of the historic powerhouses of International Hockey for many years.
