[MessierII]

No surprise.

 

[AZviaNJ]

All good in Coyote-land. #DoanStopBelievin

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

Gee, what a surprise.

 

[skyo]

Making it till 40 years old in the NHL, a rare feat.

 

[PensPlz]

Gotta get to the cap floor somehow.

 

[LV*]

No one thought he'd sign elsewhere.

 

[Man Bear Pig]

Strange that it took this long, no?

 

[Ben Matlock]

Resign = quit your job
Re-sign = sign a new contract

Carry on.

[WannabeFinn]

awesome, glad to see it

 

[Batrous]

Good signing for the Coyotes as it allows them to still have some veteran leadership to help teach the younger players on the roster.

I hope he achieves all his bonuses and collects the 5 mil. Congrats Yotes fans.

 

[jetsforever]

Nice to see him back
The last member of the old Jets

 

[KrisLetAngry]

Well veteran leadership is good

 

[Grimes]

Well veteran leadership is good

That and his 28g-47p in 72 games.

The kids revitalized him last season. Hope he can repeat.

Couple more seasons and he can join the 1,000 point club. I'm actually kind of surprised he's not already there, given how long he has been a steady player in the league.

Big enough year and he could get there next year! We'll see...

I suspect part of the reason he hasn't hit it yet is because he didn't really start putting up points until he was 23/24

 

[Hally BlackWood]

no surprise it was just a matter of time.

 

[DonskoiDonscored]

deferred bonuses? Is that allowed? What's their reasoning for that?

 

[Makar Goes Fast]

im curious if other teams inquired about Doan's services.

not because he isn't good, more so because he essentially is the coyotes.

 

[Tommy]

He had a pretty impressive season this past year, hopefully they get a crack at the playoffs this year if the stars align.

 

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

Wouldn't deferring bonuses be circumventing the cap?

A couple did yes

 

[beowulf]

Still wish the Habs could have drafted him, off by one spot and ended up with Terry Ryan...ugh.
