Who is P.A. Parenteau and Where Does He Fit?

The Devils made a pair of moves Tuesday. Both were great news to me and both were also surprising. The fact that Scott Wedgewood cleared waivers, to me, was a very pleasant surprise. I thought that Wedge proved last season that he is a capable backup in the NHL. Had he won the job, I would have been confident in his ability to fill in spot starts for Cory Schneider, and even take over as starter for small segments of time if Cory gets injured. The fact that no one else wanted him was a welcome surprise to me as we now get to let him carry Albany and see what he does with that responsibility.
