What on earth are you talking about?

Max Domi led the Chicago Blackhawks in scoring last year despite the fact that he was traded to Dallas in early March.

With the Stars, he had 13 points in 19 playoff games.

You think he "flamed out quickly" with the team he led in scoring? He "flamed out quickly" by being one of the Stars top playoff performers?

Do you have the faintest idea what you're talking about?

Yet nobody wants him back

You're absolutely certain he received no offers from anyone else?

No, but Chi thought so much they traded him then Dallas said good bye after leading scorer to, as did 4 other clubs over the past. No long term offers, no big 1 yr offers, just bye bye.

What are the odds a last-place, tanking team trades a productive veteran to a playoff team?

Good point, and it is not that I do not want him the succeed because if he does succeed we likely will as a team. BUT, he needs to be coached like a marginally successful vet who must earn his way, and we know we have lots of those. He is not a star, he is not elite. He is not going to a Brad Marchant like he could have been. I am concerned that his inflated view of himself stops the Leafs from getting his best effort.

On what basis do you believe he isn’t being coached that way? What basis do you believe he has an inflated view of himself? He just signed a one year price it deal, to play with a top team… that doesn’t scream inflated view of oneself, holding out for a top dollar LT deal. It seems likely we get the best version of him, as he seeks to earn that contract.

Let be clear... Domi will not fight for a roster spot, hes already having a guarantee spot but that doesn't mean he will hot have to fight for ice time

It's only a one-year deal and he's not getting paid like Marchand. Try to relax.
