Coyotes captain Shane Doan was named the NHL’s second star of the week after leading the league with five goals in three games.
“It’s fun,” Doan said. “It’s a fun time when you feel like you’re contributing and you feel like you’re helping the team. It’s always more enjoyable.”
Center Boyd Gordon will return to the lineup after missing the last four games with an upper-body injury. To make room for Gordon on the roster after activating him from injured reserve, the Coyotes assigned winger Craig Cunningham to the American Hockey League.
