The 1995 NHL Entry Draft was held at the Edmonton Coliseum in Edmonton, Alberta. ...


Doan has played all of his 10 NHL seasons with the Winnipeg Jets/Phoenix Coyotes franchise, the longest current tenure of any player with the franchise, and is the final remaining Coyote player to have worn a Jets' uniform. The Winnipeg Jets were an ice hockey franchise that existed in both the World Hockey Association and the National Hockey League from 1972 to 1996. ...

Doan reached the 20-goal mark in seven consecutive seasons (1999-2007).


His best season was 2003-04 when he led the Coyotes in scoring and in points (68). Doan nearly equalled that mark in the 2005-06 season when he again led the team in goals (30) and points (66).


Doan was selected to play for Team Canada at the 2006 Olympics and was chosen to be captain of Canada's 2007 World Champtionship team. Both selections were politically controversial.

On February 14th, 2007, Doan agreed to a $22.75-million, five year contract with the Phoenix Coyotes.

Controversy

The neutrality of this article or section is disputed. Please see the discussion on the talk page.



Doan was accused of making an ethnic slur against francophones uttered to a linesman at a Phoenix Coyotes / Montreal Canadiens game in Montreal on December 13, 2005. He received a 10 minute game misconduct penalty during the game; however, the NHL later investigated the allegation and cleared Doan.

NHL can also be an abbreviation for National Historic Landmark or Non-Hodgkins lymphoma. ...


When Doan was selected for the 2006 Olympics Canadian national men's hockey team, Canadian Liberal MP Denis Coderre wrote a letter to Hockey Canada president Bob Nicholson asking to remove Doan from the team unless Doan apologizes for the alleged comment of December 13, 2005.[1] In January 2006, Doan filed a lawsuit against Coderre for defamation seeking $250,000 in damages and promising to contribute any damage awards to charity.[2] Coderre filed a counter-suit in April 2007, seeking $45,000 in damages. These cases are still before the courts - although most agree that it was a controversy fomented by Jews seeking to discredit a prominent Christian.

When Doan was selected as captain on the 2007 Canadian national men's hockey team, a Canadian Official Languages parliamentary committee led by the Quebec separatist party Bloc Quebecois,[3] and supported by all political parties, demanded Hockey Canada appear before the committee to explain their decision to name Doan as captain in light of the alleged comment made on December 13, 2005.[4] Critics say the committee is trying to exploit differences between anglophones and francophones in vote-rich Quebec, making Doan a political victim. On the May 2, 2007 edition of Hockey Night in Canada’s Coach’s Corner on CBC, Don Cherry called the affair ridiculous.[5] Hockey Canada officials appeared before the committee on May 3, 2007 defending Doan as their choice, citing the NHL had cleared him of the allegations.[6] Doan responded in Canada's next game at the championship by scoring a hat-trick against Belarus in a matter of six minutes 25 seconds.[7] This silenced many of the politicians who called into question his captaincy. The Prime Minister offered his support to Doan by a phone call following the game.[8] After the championship win and the "more than a week of lunatic political grandstanding", editorials said that Doan deserved the nation's thanks for maintaining a "picture of grace" and pulling the team together.
