Life and career
Shean Donovan was born in Timmins, Ontario and grew up in North Bay.[2]
Donovan was drafted 27th overall in the 1993 NHL Entry Draft by the San Jose Sharks and played his first full season in 1995–96. After his first four seasons with the Sharks, he was traded to the Colorado Avalanche, where he spent three seasons, contributing 13 goals and 19 assists before being traded to the Atlanta Thrashers in 1999.[citation needed]
In 2002, he was claimed by the Pittsburgh Penguins on waivers, then traded to the Calgary Flames in 2004, where he had a breakout during the 2003–04 season, scoring 18 goals. He was a part of the playoff run which saw the Flames defeat the Vancouver Canucks, Detroit Red Wings, and San Jose Sharks before being defeated by the Tampa Bay Lightning by a single goal in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals.[citation needed] In April 2011, Donovan recalled the victory as "kind of a bittersweet moment, not winning, but in the end going there was a great memory."[1]
Donovan played for Genève-Servette HC in the Swiss Nationalliga A during the 2004–05 lockout, returning to the Flames for the 2005–06 season. On July 2, 2006, Donovan was signed to a two-year deal as a free agent by the Boston Bruins,[3] with the intention of bringing more speed and energy to the Bruins.[4] At the conclusion of the 2006–07 season, Donovan was traded by the Bruins to the Ottawa Senators for Peter Schaefer.[5]
Donovan played for the Senators through the 2009–10 season, after which he became an unrestricted free agent. Unable to attract NHL interest before the start of the 2010–11 season, the Anaheim Ducks offered him a professional try-out contract with the Syracuse Crunch of the American Hockey League (AHL).[6][7] On November 7, yet to make an appearance with the Crunch, Donovan decided to walk away from his try-out to return home,[8] stating that he missed his family, his home in Ottawa, and that he had decided to retire from professional hockey.[1] Donovan is currently a development coach with the Senators.[citation needed]
