No to Max Domi.
Just dumb penalties galore. I see "tough" thrown around but he only had a higher hits/60 than two forwards on the Toronto Maples Leafs... Mitch Marner and William Nylander.

He doesnt score goals. If he did, Id say OK - you have someone who will drop gloves and score a few... but since he doesnt hit, agree no way.

Ya we have enough vertically impaired fwds as it is.. hard pass on chrome domi
Domi had 47 points in 80 games and 4 points in 7 playoff games. He also had 6 fights.
Those are the type of stats Kings were hoping for when they traded all those assets for PLD and paid him 8.5 million.
I would take Domi, at 29, with those stats, for 4 million.

Hits>Fights.
He got his ass whooped by Bennett, Ian Cole, and only won against 19 year old Simon Nemec.
Max Domi is a 5'9", punching bag, that takes a ridiculous amount of minor penalties.

Roy is already a lose-lose after Blake refused to deal him at the deadline all so we could win one f***ing playoff game.
Either we re-sign him for way too much or he walks for free.
Surfs up!

Everything Blake does loses value for the franchise.. he looks like he's moving fwd but keeps moving backward... sorta like this dude

Blake Out of Hell III: Back in to Hell
Bring the Lemieux and Domi kids in here but can't figure out how to bring in one of the Tkachuks.

Its weird to think about how to flesh out the roster with the money available when you know its just going to push the team further into no man's land. Like what imaginary scenario do i need to paint, so i can make decisions on what players to obtain? Tell me how you guys are doing it.. e.g. well Im going with - our out players are fine, we just need goaltending.. or we can live with Kuemper/Rittich - they are fine.. we just need to sign a couple of top 6 fwds to replace PLD and RV.

Not direction I would go, better options out there and Luc and Rob, I dont mean spending 8.5 to 9 million x 8 for Guentzel.
Duchene would be interesting, but would annoy me because it would mess with center depth and Byfield getting play. I know he has also played as a right wing, but I know he would see time as a center sooner or later 
I have a feeling we are going to end up bringing back Toffoli

I would call Boston, Toronto, Rangers and see if bv they want early negotiating rights for a 4th or any team for that matter.

Duchene is enticing but he was so good last year because he fit really well on that Dallas squad. Didn't realize he's an upcoming UFA, but I think he re-signs with the Stars.
Still think Stamkos would be worth a shot which would track for Blake cuz signing him wouldn't commit to a full rebuild, more like a half assed re-tool.
