Doan Deal?
June 27, 2012 - 11:59 AM ET
I'm not going to lie about it. I'm an unabashed Shane Doan fan. Always have been. Always will be. The guy is the embodiment of all the things you want to see in a great hockey player: he plays an honest game, works his ass off is practice and in games, is a leader of men, is as tough as leather, wil...


At least change the title if you're going to put the exact same thing.

Well we should at least give him credit for not copy and pasting from other sources like he is known to do. But now he copies and pastes from himself....classic!!

What about trading for Morrow from Dallas? They have wing depth now with Whitney and Jagr and need now d-men which we have a lot of. He is a younger, cheaper version of Doan and gives us depth on the LW

I don't think it's going to be the money to where Doan signs he's just going to go where he thinks he can win. He's my favorite captain in hockey but it's a longshot to say the least for us to land him.

This roster is far from set and I think Vanek is on the move. Just my opinion.

Doan is not going to come east, its pretty clear he wants to stay in the Western Conference. Its a pipe dream to think that Doan would come to Buff, let a lone any other Eastern team. The only teams from the East that could land him would be Philly and Pitt, but even then thats a long shot. He'll probably end up resigning with Pho, but if not I could see him going to SJ to give them scoring depth which they need.

I agree I love how people are saying this is our final roster, to me there's atleast one more significant move but maybe even two deals. I still see us getting a top 6 forward and maybe a veteran center like Arnott or Wellwood.

It can't be set on July 7th. Because its quiet doesn't mean that's it. We still have to sign Ennis and Kaleta and we have close to $11M in cap space. This team will spend close to the cap and I agree, we will see two more moves, a trade and a signing. I'd be happy with some center depth, go get Arnott. Lindy is tired of Vanek, time to move him.

Doan to the Kings is the best chance LA has to take a run at a repeat. Especially if he and Brown end up on a line together..

Brown-Kopitar-Doan
Gagne-Richards-Carter
Penner-Stoll-Williams
King-Fraser-Nolan

That's a scary group.

I had the same thing. Makes a lot of sense if Doan comes to LA.

Definitely a chance to repeat.
