Arizona Coyotes right wing Shane Doan skates during the second period of the team's NHL hockey game against the Toronto Maple Leafs, Friday, Dec. 23, 2016, in Glendale, Ariz. Doan has been a franchise cornerstone since the Coyotes moved from Winnipeg to Arizona in 1996, a stabilizing force through the good times and the bad. Auston Matthews grew up watching the Coyotes, went on to become the first Arizonan to be drafted in the NHL and a budding star with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Matthews returned to the desert Friday for his first game as an NHL player in his home state, the same night Doan played his 1,500th NHL game and scored his 400th career goal.
