The Minnesota Wild paid tribute to their past Tuesday during warmups, and Zach Parise had some gear his players didn't.

J.P. Parise spent the majority of his NHL career with the Minnesota North Stars, recording 396 points in 588 regular-season games.
Tuesday is the Wild's final home game of the regular season, and they're feting the 1967-68 team, which brought NHL hockey to Minnesota, as part of their fan-appreciation efforts.
