{coyotes} Doan ties Hawerchuk for franchise record

 

Shane Doan tied the Winnipeg/Arizona franchise record for points with a goal for the Arizona Coyotes against the Calgary Flames at Gila River Arena on Friday.

Doan scored 3:31 into the first period for his 929th point, tying Dale Hawerchuk.

It was Doan's 20th goal of the season, 388th of his NHL career.

Doan set the franchise record for goals when he scored No. 380 against the second iteration of the Winnipeg Jets on Dec. 31.

Doan made his NHL debut on Oct. 7, 1995, for the original Jets, who moved to Arizona and became the Phoenix Coyotes for the 1996-97 season. The 39-year-old has played 1,439 games, all with the Jets/Coyotes.

Hawerchuk played 713 games for Winnipeg, the last in the 1989-90 season (his ninth). He finished his NHL career with the Buffalo Sabres, St. Louis Blues and Philadelphia Flyers.
