VanCan2013 Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Shane Doan can only wait so long for the situation in Phoenix to unfold. (Getty Images) Here we are a week into August and Shane Doan still hasn't made a decision on where he will play next. He's been waiting very patiently to see if the situation in Phoenix was going to be stable enough to allow him to return as all along he has said that his preference would be to remain with the Coyotes but he wanted the future of the franchise to be firm. It would appear that he's finally decided to move on. That's according to Larry Brooks of the New York Post. Doan, who understandably wants this to be the last move he makes, is believed to have narrowed his sights on Manhattan, Pittsburgh and Vancouver. It's unclear if Rangers general manager Glen Sather is willing to go four years, but if he does, Doan is more likely than not to become a Blueshirt. Yes, that's three teams on the list and none of them is the Coyotes. If it's indeed true then Doan will finally find out what it's like to play for another franchise.

-Vintage Canuck- Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 I really can't see how the Rangers can get him. But what is surprising is that they have the cap space to acquire him. Kinda surprising! I thought San Jose was in the mix too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashian Kassian Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 I like our chances, with the Rangers supposedly having a very slim chance, It basicly boils down to two main options, us and the Pens, I have a gut feeling he wants to stay in the West if possible, so hopefully MG gives him a good offer that he would be willing to do and he chooses us.

VanCan2013 Posted August 6, 2012 Author Share Posted August 6, 2012 A source confirmed that if Shane Doan is seeking a 4 year deal worth $30 million, the Sharks won’t be among the teams that would go that high. The Sharks won’t offer more than 3 years at about $4.5 million per season according to the source. If he wants to stay close to Phoenix, the Sharks and Canucks are the only Western Conference teams that are pursuing him. According to this, MG should offer Doan that 4 year deal worth $30 million if not more in order to ensure he signs with Van! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
