Shane Doan Says He Isn't Retiring, Plans to Return to Coyotes Next Season

Arizona Coyotes captain Shane Doan has spent the past two decades with the organization, beginning as a 19-year-old when the Coyotes were still the original Winnipeg Jets in 1995.

After completing his 20th year in 2015-16, the 39-year-old is set to become an unrestricted free agent July 1. But he has no intentions of retiring yet, as he told NHL Network on Friday (via John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7).

Doan has remained consistent as his career has progressed in Arizona. He's scored 20 or more goals in 13 of his 20 years, including 28 in 2015-16, which was his largest output since he tallied 31 in 2008-09.
