The deal is expected to come in at two years with an average annual value of $1.25 million, per The Post’s Larry Brooks. 

Pärssinen came to New York, along with defenseman Calvin de Haan and two conditional 2025 draft picks, in a March 1 trade with the Avalanche that sent Ryan Lindgren, Jimmy Vesey and prospect Hank Kempf to Colorado.
