Doan has stated repeatedly how much he hated playing in the city of Winnipeg. Obviously, location is a factor for many athletes (i.e. Miami, Los Angeles, etc). Who wants to play on a sh***y team in small town Canada? Not many athletes obviously.
That and he doesn’t want to uproot his family so for all the east coast fans spouting off on your teams chances, listen to Doan’s comments. He has repeatedly said he doesn’t want to uproot his family. So Dallas, Colorado, Los Angeles, San Jose, Anaheim…they have a fighting chance. Which is more than Winnipeg has of having a winning record…lmao!!!! GO SABRES!!!!

He does not have the time for a rebuild. That fanchise does not need him to put fans in the stands.

Great role player. The desert has become quicksand over the summer.

he ruled out Boston because he wants to be closer to family, but NY is ok?

Hope he stops in Buffalo for a visit. Need a player like him not only as an offensive and defensive weapon but a great team leader too.

Wasn’t a comeback……just a fact.

At least 20 goals and 50 points a year will make any team consider adding a player to their roster

I think whichever team you’re talking about doesn’t really care what age a player is as long as he can play.

In fact most teams would offer 53 year old daryl sutter a contract for a year if he wasn’t coaching the kings.
