mpt Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 No deadline needed because he'll be signing in Phoenix. Looks like the petition is void: http://www.foxsportsarizona.com/07/12/12/Glendale-group-Referendum-petition-inval/landing.html?blockID=759786&feedID=3702 It was fun while it lasted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucks411 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Did you just completely disregard what Doan's own agent said? The future is uncertain regardless of that outcome, it's unknown whether Jamison will even be able to launch a bid now. There's a lot more to all of this than that stupid petition.

JordanEberle Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 You can also bet he is getting a great deal of pressure from the league (current owners) about how much hockey in Phoenix depends on him as the face of the franchise etc. He's a character guy and that may sway him to stay. I sure hope not because if things go bad for the ownership there, the NHL brass will dump his carcass on the side of the road like road-kill.

Spoosh Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 This is one of the most exciting, yet uneventful summer of hockey that I can remember... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIBdaQUIB Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 But if he really wants to do whats best for the team, he might consider leaving because then they would most certainly have to relocate. No shane Doan = No Phoenix, hes one of the only sources of fans they have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arsenalian Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Did you read the quote from USA today?? All the gent said was "the 16th doesn't matter any more" the rest of the article is speculation from USA today, not from the Agent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnLocke Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I don't get the reports of making an offer for doan. Dont we only have like 3-4 mil in cap space ATM? Wouldn't we need to trade luongo BEFORE we are allowed to make offers of 4+mil? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LanghorneslimRules Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 If we could sign him Doan would be the perfect mentor Kassian imagine having the next Shane Doan but with more grit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boudrias Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Like I said, the petition is only one hurdle to overcome there's a lot more to it. Jamison himself does not have the money to buy the team, he had an investment group consortium that was going in with the offer. He's got investor's dropping out now w/ all the uncertainty surrounding the whole deal. According to, I think it was Tyson Nash, on the radio the other day; "Investor's who were solidly in the deal before are no longer returning his calls". Not a good sign for the deal going through. Even if the NHL tries to push the sale through, that's pretty hard to do if the local purchaser doesn't have the money together. Secondly as many have mentioned the failed petition can cause a backlog of litigation that could drag on for a long time. The Coyotes will be there next year, at this point, but after that? Doan is looking beyond just this year. edit: Oh and that's all assuming the Goldwater Institute doesn't decide to step into the bull ring again.

NucksBruins Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Um... Okay. Doan is gritty mofo, Kassian does not use his size or hit people. Craig Berube would be a good mentor to Kassian because they are both plugs. Doan is a great nhler who can score. Plus wtf is up with all this mentor crap!

DeNiro Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 At age 21, Doan had played 137 NHL games, scored a total of 11 goals and 29 points. He was regarded at the time as a bust who had been rushed into the NHL by the Jets and was sinking in Phoenix. How old is Kassian again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cr8zyCanuck Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 At this rate he will finally have made his descision at the trade deadline But jokes aside, from a selfish point of view hopefully (for our sake) the thing falls through, he is exactly what we need and I don't wanna go into the season with Raymond on our team let alone in our top 6. But I feel for him aswell, he really wants to stay there, and that's a tough spot to be, for his sake I hope whatever happens he ends up being happy with it.
