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.

Devils' Xavier Parent: Hat trick in AHL win
Rotowire
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.

Devils' Xavier Parent: Called up from minors
Rotowire
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.
