There is “strong mutual interest” between the Sharks and Phoenix Coyote captain Shane Doan, according to the veteran forward’s agent.

Doan, 35, became one of the premier prizes remaining in this year’s free agent market July 1. A left wing who has scored 788 points in 1,198 games, Doan wanted to wait a week before talking with other teams so he could better assess the likelihood the Coyotes would be able to remain in their present location.

His agent, Terry Bross, has indicated at least 11 teams — including Sharks general manager Doug Wilson — have called about Doan.

“Yes there is strong mutual interest” between Doan and the Sharks, Bross said in an email. “Have been in contact with Mr. Wilson.”

A group of investors led by former Sharks CEO Greg Jamison has reached an arena-operating agreement with the Phoenix suburb of Glendale, but that document is being challenged in court and also could end up going to the voters. Doan reportedly would prefer to remain with Phoenix, but does not like the idea that the franchise could end up moving.

Doan’s decision could come as early as Tuesday, according to Bross.

Wilson declined to comment on the email other than to say he continues to work to improve the team during this free agency period.
