Max Domi wanted to play for the Toronto Maple Leafs
NHL trade rumors for October 31, 2022 feature Max Domi. Domi wanted to sign with the Toronto Maple Leafs but Kyle Dubas said no.

The Toronto Maple Leafs have the skill but lack the grit and drive to win battles for pucks and it has shown in all their loses this season.

If they want to be a Stanley Cup contender, they need more sandpaper in the lineup.

Nick Kypreos in his Saturday column in the Toronto Star reported Toronto Maple Leafs GM Kyle Dubas turned down a Max Domi offer in the summertime.

Kypreos went on to say, Domi would have taken less money than the $3 million he took from the Chicago Blackhawks.

Domi is far from perfect, but he would have definitely provided more attitude on a Leafs team that’s lacking it so far.

It will be interesting to see what the Maple Leafs do with the LTIR money they will get if Jake Muzzin is indeed done for the year. They will have to sign someone with some grit and all signs to them signing Arizona Coyotes defenseman Jakob Chychrun when he comes off the injured list.
