He is the son of Coyotes legend, Shane Doan, who played with the Coyotes franchise for his entire 21-year career.

It has been nearly two months since Timmins last dressed for the Maple Leafs (Jan 20th) but he will get an opportunity on Wednesday as he replaces TJ Brodie in the lineup. The 25-year-old beat a battle with mono last month and will look to build off his impressive 16-game showing this season so far as he has six points (1G/5A), 14 SOG, eight PIMs and a +5 plus/minus.
The Sabres will turn to Levi for the tail-end of their back-to-back after Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen got the call for Monday's game in Seattle. It will be Levi's first NHL game since January 24th, a game in which he allowed just three goals on 40 shots in a 5-3 victory over the Kings. The Sabres opted to send Levi down to Rochester (AHL) shortly thereafter in order to assure him more playing time as Luukkonen ran away with the starting job. Levi will be hoping to stake a claim for more playing time after amassing an 11-5-3 record to go along with a .927 SV% across 19 AHL appearances.
Michael Pezzetta will replace Pearson, who will watch from the press box as a healthy scratch on Tuesday against the Edmonton Oilers. Pearson has 12 points (5G / 7A) in 48 games this season.

The Sabres enter action as +104 road underdogs against the Seattle Kraken.
