Max Domi opens up about Leafs hiring Craig Berube

During the Juvenile Diabetes Research
Foundation Walk in Toronto, Domi gave a glowing review of new Maple Leafs head coach Craig Berube.

Domi played the 2023-24 season on a one-year, $3 million contract, scoring nine goals and racking up 47 assists in 80 regular-season games. After a slow start, he became one of the NHL's best 5-on-5 playmakers. He switched between center and wing but excelled on Auston Matthews' line and filled in admirably as a top-line center during Matthews' absence in a seven-game first-round loss to the Boston Bruins.

At 29, Domi is still weighing his options, with the Maple Leafs interested in re-sign him for the upcoming season. He shares the same agent as Matthews, Judd Moldaver, who secured a long-term extension for Matthews in August 2023.

For Domi, playing for the Maple Leafs is fulfilling a childhood dream. Whether he stays in Toronto remains to be seen, but he's on board with the team's vision.
