Parent is set to take on an assistant coach role with AHL Binghamton for the upcoming season.

EDGE Analysis

The move effectively ends Parent's playing days, although he hasn't suited up since 2015-16 when he was with AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. The 31-year-old logged 106 NHL games for the Flyers and Canucks, in which he tallied one goals and six assists. The bulk of the blueliner's career was spent in the AHL, so it should be a relatively easy jump to minor-league coach.

The Vancouver Canucks have placed Ryan Parent on waivers. Once a highly touted prospect, Parent has failed to make an impact in the Vancouver organization.
