New Leafs forward Max Domi says he'll strap on the pads if needed!

Tie Domi remains one of the more beloved former members of the Toronto Maple Leafs in recent history, and despite his son Max having once suited up for the rival Montreal Canadiens and trolling his dad's team, Max is indeed now a member of the Leafs. 

Having split last season with the Chicago Blackhawks and the Dallas Stars, Domi agreed to join the Leafs and signed a one-year contract worth $3 million.

But where does he envision slotting into the lineup? According to the man himself, he'll even play in net if he's asked! 

"We'll keep that between me and Keefer," he said. "Obviously, he's the coach, so whatever he asks me to do, I'll be fully prepared to do that, whether that's playing wing, center, I'm not necessarily great between the pipes - I think we're good there - but if he needed a goalie, I'd be down to do that too. Whatever he asks me to do, I'm going to do the best of my ability to be the best version of myself in that role."

Domi then went on to speak about his experiences suiting up for other NHL clubs, and added that while it can be difficult, it's also beneficial to learn from several different NHL coaches. 

"I've played for a lot of teams, which in some ways is hard," he said. "Obviously, moving around quite a bit, largely due to short-term contracts - but the positive of that is getting to play for a lot of different coaches.. I like to thing I've got a lot of experience in this league and I'm looking forward to just bringing that into this locker room and helping out in any way that I can."
