Parent secured a one-year, two-way contract with New Jersey on Wednesday.
Parent played in just five games for the Devils last year and failed to register a point while logging 8:34 of ice time per contest. The 25-year-old winger figures to remain a fringe roster option for New Jersey in 2026-27, making him a relative non-factor in fantasy.

Parent scored three goals in AHL Utica's 5-1 win over Belleville on Saturday.
Parent has four goals over the last two games, which follows a six-game slump for the forward. He's at 13 goals, 24 points and a minus-5 rating over 43 appearances. That's a pace roughly in line with the one that earned him 36 points in 61 regular-season contests a year ago.

Parent was assigned to AHL Utica on Saturday.
The Devils noted that the Parent and Calen Addison were returned to the minors ahead of Friday's roster freeze, and the team also activated Timo Meier (personal) from the non-roster list. Parent has two shots on goal and seven hits in five NHL outings this season without earning a point.

Parent was elevated from AHL Utica on Thursday.
Parent has never appeared in an NHL game, and while he's far from a lock to play against the Lightning on Thursday, his 12 points in 20 minor-league games this year could convince the coaching staff to give him a look. If Parent does get into the lineup, it will likely come at the expense of Juho Lammikko, who has served as a healthy scratch for the last three contests.

Parent scored a goal on four shots and added an assist in AHL Utica's 3-2 loss to Cleveland on Saturday.
Parent is on a one-year, entry-level deal this season after playing on an AHL-only contract in 2024-25. Over parts of three minor-league seasons, he had 35 goals and 52 assists across 146 games prior to 2025-26. He'll likely spend most of this year in the minors but could earn a call-up if his offense reaches new heights.

Parent inked a one-year, entry-level contract with New Jersey on Friday.
Parent's deal will kick in for the 2025-26 campaign, so he won't be eligible to be called up to the Devils' roster this season. Undrafted out of the QMJHL, the 23-year-old center has generated 11 goals and 15 helpers in 44 minor-league contests for AHL Utica this year. While Parent is far from a lock next year, he should at least have a shot at earning a roster spot during training camp in the fall.
