W Josh Doan (2021, 37th, ARI)

I kept thinking once he gets the call up, he will excel at the NHL level with better players and never set foot back in the AHL

In pre-season he was probably one of our best players and if we didn't have to leave for Australia he would have most likely made the team. Tenacious on the forecheck, has good vision and works extremely hard, he's going to be a good complimentary player who can move up and down the lineup.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

his 25 goals leads all rookies, he is second in rookie points with 42
- pace for 30+ goals.

 

[JasonDemersWasOkay]

He's been fantastic for Tucson. Should get a call-up at some point before the end of the season

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Got the call up... Expected to make his debut on Tuesday VS. CBJ

 

[JasonDemersWasOkay]

He’ll become the first player to play for the Sun Devils, Tucson, and no the coyotes. This’ll be an exciting debut for coyotes fans!

 

[Aaaarrgghh]

I'm really rooting for Doan. Happy to see that he's doing well in Tucson and wish him well for tonight.

 

[Dempsey]

First NHL goal and he looks great out there tonight.

Been Arizona’s best player. Not a high bar, but still.

 

[Our Lady Peace]

How can you not love this story out of Arizona, even with all the noise going on about the franchise. Lots of buzz about his callup this week.

Son of a AZ lifer fan favourite and last original Jet to play in the NHL. Passed over in his first year of eligibility. Age 19 drafted out of USHL. Production seasons with two years at ASU and Tuscon. First NHL game with his Dad's team? Score 2 goals and look like he more than belongs? Go Josh carry on that legacy!

 

[Artorius Horus T]

what a debut!, congrats!

 

[Hockeyville USA]

Been Arizona’s best player. Not a high bar, but still.

Guenther look really good too

 

[MOGlLNY]

With the Coyotes future being pretty uncertain it’s really awesome he got the chance to play (and score!) for the team that he loved his entire life.

So cool.

 

[Llewzaher]

Guenther look really good too

Guenther had 8 shots last night .. Doan had 6 in his first game…. The next highest was 3

 

[Llewzaher]

Doan is a 4ppg player 2 assists last night to start the comeback

5 shots

11 shots
2g 2a in his first 2 games

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

Very sad Detroit picked Buium in the 2nd instead of Doan...

Oops my math is a tad of on the ppg

 

[mphmiles]

Been so good on the forecheck through 2 games. Two of his points out of four were directly off of turnovers he caused, and the possession numbers have been dominant both games.

Small sample size, but a guy with his shot + compete level are the type of players coaches would kill for.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Can't ask for a better start to his NHL career...

3gp 2g. 3a. 5pts. +4. 12sog. 13:29 toi.

And this is with zero time on the PP

 

[Artorius Horus T]

4 goals, 4 assists, 8 points, 0.90 ppg, +5, 22 sog, with 12:52 avg ice time
and like above says, no PP ice time.

What do utah/arizona fans see as his upside and his likely impact.

 

[Antonche]

What do utah/arizona fans see as his upside and his likely impact.

Middle-6, 40 pts.

What do utah/arizona fans see as his upside and his likely impact.

Different type of player but I could see a Bryan Rust style career path.

 

[rt]

Or maybe like a cross between or mid point between his old man and his teammate Alex Kerfoot. Not as big or mean or talented as dad, but maybe a little bit more versatile and a good two way player who can play on any line at any forward position and in any situation. Like Kerfoot. But he’s bigger than Kerfoot.
