Scott Burnside of ESPN: On Coyotes Shane Doan …
- Doan on if this season is his last and if there would be regrets that he didn’t choose another path as his career was winding down?
“I understand it would be easy to look at it and be like, ‘Man, this could have been,'” Doan said.
“But I’ve never really tried to live that way. I’ve always tried to be — I mean, they’re all clichés — but if you worry about that, then I’m going to miss what’s going to happen next, and what happens next might be even better than what’s happened back there, so let’s not be so focused on what’s happened back there that I miss what’s happening right now.”
Roster notes
- Pierre LeBrun: The Capitals put Sean Collins on waivers. Sabres Matt Donovan cleared waivers.
- Chuck Gormley: Capitals center Nicklas Backstrom has been cleared for contact, but is not expected to play tomorrow.
