Parise registered a goal and two assists while firing five shots in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Both of Parise's assists came on goals by Eric Staal, with the first coming on the power play. The 32-year-old veteran is converting on just eight percent of his shots, marking a major decline from his career average of 11.3 percent. Still, his 18 points through 28 games have Parise playing at the same effectiveness that has seen him top 50 points in three consecutive campaigns.

Parise (illness) is expected to be in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Predators, Michael Russo of the Star Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Parise has missed Minnesota's last two games with step throat, but traveled to Nashville with his teammates for Tuesday's contest, and will be in the lineup barring an unexpected change in his health. The veteran winger, who has a disappointing 13 points in 24 games this season, is expected to skate on Minnesota's first line and top power-play unit in Tuesday's tilt.

It's not clear if Parise (illness) will travel with the Wild for Tuesday's game at Nashville, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Parise (illness) won't play in Friday's matchup with the Rangers, Michael Russo of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
It seemed like Parise was starting to get onto a bit of a hot streak with four points in his last five games before being sidelined due to an illness. His next opportunity to return will be Tuesday in Nashville, so owners should keep their eyes peeled just before then.

Parise did not take the ice for warmups Thursday and will miss the game due to an illness, Michael Russo of the Minneapolis Star Tribuen reports.
EDGE Analysis
Illnesses don't generally hold players out too long, but Parise will likely be a question mark ahead of Friday's contest against the Rangers. Jordan Schroeder will slot into the lineup in his place Thursday and would likely do the same again Friday should the star winger be unavailable.

Parise scored the opening goal and fired six shots on net during Tuesday's win over the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
The tally snapped a seven-game goalless stretch, and it was just the second point in eight games for Parise. He's maintained his high shot volume (3.19) this year, but the 32-year-old veteran has just five goals and 11 points through 21 games. There is obviously upside for Parise to right the offensive ship, but his scoring decline dates back to last season.

Parise picked up a power-play goal on four shots and tacked on an assist during Friday's 6-2 victory over Pittsburgh.
EDGE Analysis
This is exactly the type of performance owners have been waiting for. Parise has been dealing with ailments in 2016-17, but when healthy, the 32-year-old is dangerous with the puck and scores in bunches. The winger will try to build a lengthy streak moving forward after recording points in his second straight game.

Parise had two shots on goal and had 17:40 of ice time in Monday's overtime loss to Dallas. He had missed Saturday's game due to an illness.
EDGE Analysis

Parise (illness) was back on the ice Sunday after missing Saturday's game.
EDGE Analysis
The illness didn't seem too severe, and the fact that he only will miss one game strengthens that point. Parise has only played two games since late October, after dealing with a foot injury and then this illness, so it's worth showing some caution to see if he is at top form in Monday's game. The forward had six points in eight games before dealing with injury, so he was on a solid streak before being derailed.

Parise (illness) is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Parise missed six consecutive games earlier this month with a foot ailment but it appears his recent condition is unrelated and should not force the 32-year-old to miss significant time. The left winger -- who's yet to tally a point in November -- will have his next opportunity to draw into the lineup when the Wild face the Stars on Monday.
