Ryan O'Reilly's return to the Maple Leafs next season appears to be hanging by a thread. The team's financial constraints pose a challenge, making it less likely for them to retain him unless substantial moves are taken to liberate cap space.
Max Domi, whose father Tie Domi holds legendary status with the Leafs, is surfacing as a strong candidate. Having scored 70 points during his tenure in Montreal, Domi subsequently moved to the Dallas Stars and played a key role in their journey to the Conference Finals.
Last year, Reports indicated Domi's interest in joining the Leafs. However, Dubas chose a different path but who knows what direction Treliving will decide to go in.
