The Colorado Avalanche wasted little time replacing Brad May, whom they dealt earlier today to the Anaheim Ducks, by bringing back tough guy Scott Parker from the San Jose Sharks for a draft pick.

It remains to be seen, however, if Parker has a future with the Avalanche. He missed most of this season and last season with various injuries, which could give some Avs fans reason to question bringing Parker back if he's damaged goods.

He's an unrestricted free agent after this season.
