Josh Doan

24-Year-Old Right WingRW
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Doan had two stints in the NHL, a brief one to begin the campaign and a longer stretch to close it out, in 2024-25. While he looked overmatched in the earlier stint, he found his way as a third-liner after he got called back up in January. Doan finished the season with 19 points, 88 shots on net, 45 hits and a minus-2 rating over a total of 51 appearances with Utah. The 23-year-old forward looks ready to make the full-time leap in 2025-26, but he'll have to adjust to a new organization after being dealt to the Sabres in June. Doan is still worth keeping an eye on for fantasy purposes as a possible depth option for managers since he's young and has breakout potential if he settles in well. Read Past Outlooks

Inks seven-year contract extension
RWBuffalo Sabres
January 21, 2026
Doan signed a seven-year, $48.65 million contract extension with the Sabres on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
The Sabres acquired Doan from Utah during the offseason, and the 24-year-old is in the midst of a career-best campaign during his first year in Buffalo. Across 49 appearances this season, he's recorded 15 goals, 20 assists, 44 hits, 23 PIM and 18 blocked shots while averaging 16:04 of ice time. Doan was slated to become a restricted free agent during the offseason, but his extension will keep him in Buffalo through the 2032-33 campaign.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
The son of former Coyotes legend Shane Doan, Josh recently completed what was a wildly successful first full pro season. He had 26 goals and 46 points in 62 AHL games. Doan was then recalled in late March and scored twice in his NHL debut. He finished with five goals and nine points in 11 games for the Coyotes. Doan isn't going to shoot 21.7 percent over the course of a full season, but he is a legitimate prospect. Still 22 years of age, the Arizona native should open the season on Utah's third line and threaten the 20-goal mark in his first full NHL campaign.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Might sign extension soon
RWBuffalo Sabres
January 21, 2026
Doan might be closing in on a contract extension with the Sabres, per Emily Kaplan of ESPN on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Doan has made significant strides this campaign, recording 15 goals and 35 points in 49 outings with the Sabres after finishing the 2024-25 regular season with seven goals and 19 points in 51 appearances with Utah. Buffalo acquired him from Utah over the summer, along with Michael Kesselring, in exchange for JJ Peterka. Although Peterka was seen as the highlight of the trade at the time, Doan's 35 points actually narrowly beat out Peterka's 32 in 49 appearances this campaign.
