Goodbye Shane Doan?

from Dan Bickley of azcentral sports,

After 21 years of unparalleled service, Shane Doan could be down to his final game as captain of the Arizona Coyotes.

Cheer like you’ll never see him again.

Doan hasn’t made up his mind about whether he’s finished as a NHL player. That won’t change before Saturday’s faceoff. This inconvenient truth makes it impossible for a staged love-in at Gila River Arena when the Coyotes wrap up their season with a game against Minnesota.

Doan, 40, doesn’t look like he has much left in the tank. He certainly has nothing left to prove. He’s also endured an extremely frustrating season, from freak injuries to the salary-dump trade of teammate Martin Hanzal to diminished ice time.

His unshakable faith in the organization has been tested like never before.
