Parise (knee) skated Monday for the first time since suffering a sprained MCL, Brian Compton of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Parise has been out for almost two weeks at this point, but it appears he's making progress toward a return. The club is still tabbing the injury as a week-to-week ailment though, and Parise won't travel with the team for their two road games this week, so he still appears to be at least a week away.
