And you don't realize that nothing they have done this offseason would have prevented that?

Maybe he is going to sign a longer deal after this season....maybe he realizes he can probably make a lot of money in endorsements playing in this market for a long time after his career in hockey is over....maybe....

I agree. I think it's more likely Domi re-signs here if he plays well enough to warrant it then Bertuzzi, who will be seeking massive dollars.
Domi himself said he’s been trying to be a maple leaf for a long time. I think both are true. Domi wants stability. He wants a long term deal but I believe based on all reports he wants that long term deal to be in Toronto.
It sounds like he tried to get to Toronto multiple times and it didnt work out. Wouldn’t be surprised if he wanted to be included in the McCabe deal and we went with Lafferty instead.
Agreed Domi and Marner are probably going to play together.
I think Knies will play on the third line.

An underrated part of this trade: Treliving giving a subtle F-U to Paul Marner. I think that Marner and Domi (fathers) were feuding for a while (at least that's what I heard). Treliving is essentially signalling that he has no f***s to give about that and will do what's best for the team.
Proven playoff performer
Great playoffs

Bad playoff performer
Bad playoffs
------
Domi had 8 pts in 3 games and then 5 in the remaining 16...
2pts in 6 games while his team got eliminated... worse than Marner's stats against Florida.

Think that's pretty obvious.
Hate the player and all that comes with it, can't see that ever changing.

Brad said in his media availability comments they have domi listed as a winger. I know you really want it different but Tavares is locked into that 2C spot.

Sure sure, you've had a busy day
Can't see them putting all that pressure on Knies, when they have a veteran top 6 guy that can play there sure it's possible but fairly low on the probability scale, unless of course Auston wants someone else there.
I'm not sure, how long do I have to research this

Kind of was with both parties interested although they kind of at the last minuted used a bidding war to drive the price up by 500k
Sound familiar huh

Absolutely what I'd like to see rather than what I expect.
If JT is still 2C by the end of the season, I'll seriously reconsider my blaming his contract all on Dubas, and start including Shanahan.
How many 11 million play on the second line?
Leafs waltz to the beat of their own kazoo.

You're right, 2 pts in 6 games is less than Marner's 3 points in his last 6 playoff games. Mind you Marner got what, about 10 minutes more ice time per game, does that have any relevance in your world?
Domi's numbers are even worse than Marner's, holy smokes! Point taken (if we ignore ATOI anyway). Oh well, I guess I can find some comfort from the fact that his cap hit is what, almost 8 million less than Marner's?
you need to get over the contract, it was a UFA signing. Biggest UFA in history. First former 1st overall in the salary cap era to make it to UFA. he was obviously going to break the bank.
Tavares contract never was the issue. He was a UFA and took less to come here. Whether it was Lou, Hunter, Futa whoever else you wanted, Tavares was going to become a Maple Leaf and make 11 mill.
Our cap has always been f***ed because we over paid RFA's, point blank period. Kapanen and Johnsson - Paid too much
Matthews, Marner and Nylander all paid too much out of ELC's.
Domi only brings offense and is a liability defensively... does that have any relevance?
This is in response to someone claiming he is a playoff performer.
I showed what a playoff no-show looks like (Marner), and what the person thinks a playoff performer looks like (Domi), that's all.
Take your time. Bertuzzi is top 6.Sure sure, you've had a busy day
Can't see them putting all that pressure on Knies, when they have a veteran top 6 guy that can play there sure it's possible but fairly low on the probability scale, unless of course Auston wants someone else there.

If Domi really wanted to retire a leaf, he'd take less for term. I bet he's perfectly happy for a 1 year rebound season. Don't need much talent to put up 60-70 points playing on either of the Leafs top 2 lines. Then find a team willing to overpay for like 6x7

There were rumours about him being a locker room cancer, especially in Montreal.
I’d put no stock into anything that comes out of Montreal. Have you noticed every high profile player traded out of there is a locker room cancer? The organization has an issue with personality.
PK Subban was a locker room cancer apparently.
Max Pacioretty was a locker room cancer apparently.
Max Domi was a locker room cancer.
Jonathan Drouin, the list goes on.
