Maple Leafs' Max Domi: Chemistry brewing with superstar
Rotowire
Domi set up two goals in a 4-2 win over the Penguins on Saturday.
He set up William Nylander both times, and he's showing early chemistry with the superstar at 5v5. Domi is coming off a 47-point campaign, and he could come close to 60 if this bromance with Willie continues.

Maple Leafs' Max Domi: Starting camp as wingman
Rotowire
Domi will open camp on the wing, reports Arun Srinivasan of The Leafs Nation. Last season, he played his best hockey on the wing, not center.
Domi's game stumbled early while he was down the lineup as a pivot. But it took off when Mitch Marner went down with an ankle injury and Domi stepped onto a line 5v5 with Auston Matthews. Domi finished 17th in the NHL in assists (37). Expect another strong season if Domi can stick in a top-six role.

Rotowire
Domi signed a four-year, $15 million contract with Toronto on Sunday, according to Chris Johnston of The Athletic.
Domi compiled nine goals, 47 points, 137 shots on net, 118 PIM and 53 hits in 80 regular-season contests with the Maple Leafs in 2023-24. He also collected one goal and three helpers in seven playoff outings. Domi got a fantasy boost from playing alongside Auston Matthews late in the year. He could occupy a spot on Toronto's top line and see power-play time on the second unit going into the 2024-25 campaign.

Maple Leafs' Max Domi: Likely to miss final two games
Rotowire
Domi (undisclosed) is expected to miss the final two games of the regular season, according to David Alter of The Hockey News.
Domi won't play Tuesday against Florida and is unlikely to be in the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus Tampa Bay. He played through an injury in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to Detroit, so Toronto is probably just being cautious with the 29-year-old forward before the start of the playoffs. Domi has one goal and 11 assists over his last 13 outings to give him 47 points in 80 contests this campaign.

Rotowire
Domi (undisclosed) will be in the lineup Saturday against Detroit, Nick Barden of The Hockey News reports.

Although Domi didn't practice Friday, coach Sheldon Keefe told reporters the winger could still play against the Red Wings on Saturday. Domi's status versus Detroit will likely boil down to a game-time decision.

Maple Leafs' Max Domi: First goal in 10 games
Rotowire
Domi scored a goal Saturday in a 4-2 win over Montreal.
He scored at 2:21 of the second period when he was left unchecked in front of the net and deflected Ilya Lyubushkin's point shot between Sam Montembeault's legs. It was his first goal in 10 games. Domi and Tyler Bertuzzi look like a decent fit on line one with Auston Matthews, but Domi hasn't exactly kicked the door down offensively of late. He has three points (one goal, two assists) in his last seven outings. Domi has nine goals, 34 assists and 129 shots in 76 contests this campaign.

Maple Leafs' Max Domi: Seven points in last nine games
Rotowire
Domi scored a goal and added an assist in a 3-2 win over Montreal on Saturday.
He broke in alone on Sam Montembeault near the end of the second and flipped a shot under the netminder's left arm to put the Leafs up 2-1. Domi has turned his game around in the last couple of weeks, generating three goals, seven points and 23 shots on net over his past nine outings. He doesn't contribute to the power play but could be helpful as a depth addition to fantasy managers.

Maple Leafs' Max Domi: Manages helper in OT win
Rotowire
Domi supplied an assist in Wednesday's 2-1 overtime win over the Sabres.
Working behind the net, Domi chipped the puck to Tyler Bertuzzi, who quickly fed William Nylander for a second-period goal. Domi failed to get a shot on goal in the contest, but he's dishing a fair amount based on 25 of his 32 points being apples through 62 contests. The 29-year-old pivot seems to be doing enough to warrant a roster spot in deep leagues.

Maple Leafs' Max Domi: Nets two goals in win
Rotowire
Domi scored twice on five shots in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Golden Knights.
Goals have been hard to come by for Domi this season -- after Thursday, he has just seven tallies on the year. The 28-year-old has earned five points over his last seven contests while holding down a middle-six role. He's up to 29 points, 86 shots on net, 75 PIM, 43 hits and a plus-1 rating through 56 appearances.

Maple Leafs' Max Domi: Fiery effort in blowout win
Rotowire
Domi had two assists to work around 11 PIM in Saturday's 9-2 win over the Ducks.
Domi was a real menace to the Ducks, as he set up two goals and asserted himself physically based on the separate fighting, hooking and roughing penalties. Fantasy leagues generally don't reward for PIM to the high degree that they did in the previous decade, but Domi, despite averaging only 13 minutes of ice time, remains relevant in deep leagues based on five goals and 22 assists through 53 contests.

Maple Leafs' Max Domi: Pockets helper Tuesday
Rotowire
Domi notched an assist and two PIM in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Kings.
Domi has four helpers over his last three games. The 28-year-old continues to see relatively limited ice time on the third line, but he's been productive with 11 points over his last 14 outings.

Maple Leafs' Max Domi: Assists on both goals in loss
Rotowire
Domi recorded two assists, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Hurricanes.
Domi played provider, setting up Timothy Liljegren and Nick Robertson for the Maple Leafs' third-period goals. The 28-year-old Domi has been solid lately, racking up two goals and six helpers over his last nine outings, though he remains firmly on the third line. The forward is up to 21 points, 47 shots on net, 54 PIM, 22 hits and an even plus-minus rating through 34 contests overall. Domi also sees time on the second power-play unit, but his production there is not very consistent.

Maple Leafs' Max Domi: Best night in blue and white
Rotowire
Domi scored a goal and added two assists in a 7-0 win over the Penguins on Saturday.
With Auston Matthews out sick, Domi shifted into the top six and showed off his offensive talents. It was his most productive game as a Maple Leaf. Domi has 17 points, including two goals, in 28 outings this season. Domi's fantasy value would spike up if he could stick in a top-six role, but it probably won't be long before he is back on the third line.

Maple Leafs' Max Domi: Contributes goal Saturday
Rotowire
Domi found the back of the net in a 4-3 overtime loss to Boston on Saturday.
Domi's marker was his first of the season, though he had contributed 11 assists over 21 games going into Saturday's action. He's recorded just 31 shots this season for a pace of 1.41 per game. Domi is currently on track for the lowest shots per game of his career. However, when you consider the 28-year-old entered the contest averaging just 12:58 of ice time, which is down from his career average of 16:16, perhaps it's not surprising Domi isn't taking many shots.

Maple Leafs' Max Domi: Two helpers in OT loss
Rotowire
Domi picked up two assists in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to Chicago.
The 28-year-old is still looking for his first goal as a member of the Maple Leafs, but Domi has had a productive start to the season with 11 assists in 18 games, including seven in his last seven contests. He's proving to be a reliable addition to Toronto's third line, but without ice time alongside any of the team's Core Four (Auston Matthews, Mitchell Marner, John Tavares and William Nylander), Domi's fantasy ceiling will be capped.
