Speculation: Shane Doan

[Kanneda]

Why hasn't he signed yet? Is it possible that he's considering other teams apart for Arizona?

I'd be amazed if Shane Doan did anything but either sign for the Yotes or retire.

Yes that's what I read yesterday but the extension didn't come.

The vast majority of players signed yesterday and today aren't winning cups on those teams either.

None of those are this close 40 either . Looks like Cup isn't really that important to him anyway else he would've been rented out a couple of times at the very least.

He's explained several times that he finds being a playoff rental conceptually unappealing in that he feels it cheapens the experience. He wants to win a cup with HIS team or not at all. You and I may not agree with the that or totally understand it, but he gets to have his opinion.

And good for him. A true captain of his team. Wouldn't want to see him leave the Yotes.

At this point I don't think his focus is on absolutely winning a cup.

He's a legacy in Arizona. He's the last original Jet that came over with the team in 96. I'd rather see him stay there too and I completely agree with his philosophy. He's been extremely loyal to that franchise and he should get whatever he wants in return.

28 goals last year, only 30 players scored more. Just remember that.

I would love to have Doan on the Sharks this year but it's not surprising that he will stay loyal to the Coyotes. It's one of his redeeming qualities since he can be a real pain in the ass to watch play against my team. lol

Within reason, I'd agree. They acquired Pronger and Datsyuk for a reason. They clearly want to avoid spending money if they can. Guessing one year, 2-3m.

Yeah, Grossmann and Chychrun.

Isn't that like saying water is wet, unless it is dehydrated?

Love the Shane. Maybe he could come bring some heart to the NYI but IDK, I think he wants to retire.

He considered retirement but made the decision to come back. I think he feels that they haven't done enough to improve the roster with the cap space (and budget space, even for AZ) has left. I don't really disagree with him.

I'd sign with a contender, but he values family above all else.

I remember the same thing with Mats Sundin not wanting to join another team at the deadline.

Ok you can close.
Seems like Chayka is offering him too little and he has 3 offers from other teams but he said he's not going anywhere.
