You deffinately have to look at it in the context of his team.
The team is a Minus -153 collectively.
There are only 3 regulars(60+ games played) that are above 0; Ryan Murphy, Pascal Rheaume, Bobby Allen.
When you have guys on your team like Voros -9, Clouthier -9, Pikkarainen -Suglobov -13, Pihlman -13, Nittel -14, Janssen -14, Kesa -16 Khomutov -19
The -7 is not that bad.
You can begin to see the -7 when taken in context is not bad at all. I believe Parise is actually 6th or 7th in +/- on the team of players who have played more than 60 games.
Exactly, the second highest scorer (must have played a fair amount of minutes per game) on a somewhat minus team having a -7 is not bad. In fact a "0" would be a positive stat.
Some of the "leaders" in +/- may have had much less icetime.
