With Parekh, is not like trying to teach an old dog new tricks. He is still very much a prospect. Just because he is currently with the NHL team, it's not like the learning ends, so you have to at least try to get him to become a more well rounded player. It would be a disservice not to. If you try and despite best efforts, he settles in as a one-dimensional offensive player, so be it, at least you tried. What I don't like is the notion that it's beneath him or some kind of insult to his talent level.
