The Arizona Coyotes officially retired Shane Doan‘s #19 prior to last night’s home tilt against the Jets and it was a night that will live long in the memory of everyone connected with the team.
Seeing Doan’s number raised to the rafters was undoubtedly going to be the most important event taking place last night, no matter the result.
Doan has touched the hearts of many fans and colleagues alike throughout his impressive 21-year career in the NHL.
After being selected seventh overall by the original Winnipeg Jets in 1996, the Halkirk, Alberta native followed the team to the desert and never looked back.
