Long negotiation winds up with a great deal for both sides.
After some lengthy negotiations, both sides stunningly struck a deal in the last 24 hours that seems to work out well. Domi managed to secure a four-year term instead of the widely projected two years, which nudged up the AAV. He's known for his offensive prowess on the second line, though his defensive stats haven't been great , ranking among the lower forwards in the league.
The $3.75 million cap hit seems fair and balanced for both Domi and the team. It's great to see a local talent staying put and continuing to contribute to the Leafs!
Max Domi has re-signed with the Toronto Maple Leafs to a four-year contract with an AAV of $3.75. Domi is a good 2nd line offensive forward, but also one of the worst forwards in defense in the whole league. The cap hit is fair for both sides. But that term? Good for Domi.
Domi had a busy season, playing 80 games in the regular season where he scored 47 points, finished with a plus-10 rating, and accumulated 118 penalty minutes. During the playoffs against the Boston Bruins, he contributed four points across all seven games. His ice time averaged 13:47 in the regular season but bumped up to 16:57 during the playoffs.
His faceoff success rate was 50% in the regular season, improving to an impressive 66.7% in the postseason, showing he thrives with more time on the ice.
Domi's commitment to Toronto has always been clear, and Leafs GM Brad Treliving has made it known he values keeping him on the team. The contract extension is a win-win for Domi and the Leafs!
