Free agent forward Shane Doan has visited with the New York Rangers and Philadelphia Flyers over the past two days, according to multiple reports.
Philly.com says Doan's latest visit was with the Flyers on Saturday morning. The website said the sides have mutual interest, but the meeting was described as Doan "just checking his options."
Doan has expressed his interest in remaining with the Coyotes, for whom he has played his entire career, but the team could leave Phoenix pending resolution of its ownership situation.
"I've made no bones about the fact that I want to go back to Phoenix if the situation works out," Doan said Thursday.
The Flyers on Thursday announced they have signed Nashville Predators defenseman Shea Weber to an offer sheet reportedly for 14 years, $110 million.
Arizonasports.com reported Friday that Doan met with the New York Rangers. The 35-year-old forward was in New York City to take part in collective bargaining negotiations between the National Hockey League and the National Hockey League Players' Association.
The New York Daily News said it was Doan's first official visit of free agency.
Doan said Thursday he is accepting contract offers but not actively seeking them.
"I don't want to put anybody in a situation where they feel like if they impress me I'll come," he said. "Until I make my decision, I don't want to force anybody's hand."
