This quote makes me think that Doan is the veteran who Treliving referred to in the beginning of the off-season (the vet who was impressed with what the Flames were building).
If they looked at Doan, it probably meant nothing. So maybe the Jagr rumours also mean very little. I'm also a little skeptical that Doan wouldn't sign with any of the team's mentioned.

Treliving leaves no stones un-turned. He probably asked Doan if he plans on playing outside of Arizona and what his ask is.
