Devils captain Zach Parise admitted he was "a little shaken up" initially, but said he was feeling fine after Friday night's 5-0 win in Washington despite being hit in the right side of his jaw by Brooks Laich's stick. Parise said he went through the NHL's concussion procedural testing before he came back out to the bench for the third period. "We did the normal NHL protocol thing and their doctor said everything was fine," he said. Parise was sandwiched between Laich and Matt Hendricks just outside the Devils' blue line 9:40 into the second period. Laich got his stick up and made contact with the right side of Parise's jaw in a collision that Parise and Devils coach Pete DeBoer both thought was unintentional. "I thought it was an accident." DeBeor said. "I know Brooks Laich and he's not a dirty player. So, I'm sure it was accidental."
