Former Fighting Sioux hockey player Zach Parise made the top ten top bargins.
THN.com Top 10: Best bargains
8. Mike Komisarek, Defenseman, Montreal - $1.7 million
Komisarek isn't flashy (or healthy at the moment), but he's quickly becoming one of the better shutdown defenders in the league. He hits, fights and is a top-three blueliner making the salary of a fifth or sixth guy.

3. Zach Parise, Left Wing, New Jersey a?" $3.125 million
The most expensive player on the list is a bargain nonetheless. Parise has exploded this season and currently sits tied for 15th in league scoring. His 15 goals, 28 points, plus-12 rating, four power play goals and two overtime goals all lead the Devils. With numbers like that and having just the seventh-highest salary on the team, Parise is a bargain.

1. Tim Thomas, Goaltender, Boston a?" $1.1 million
The quarter-mark favorite for the Vezina Trophy ranks first on this list because he's first in the league in GAA (1.90), second in SP (.940) and is the No. 1 tender on the No. 1 team in the East.
