Hockey Night in Canada did not disappoint, with the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Montreal Canadiens going down to the wire. The Leafs ended up pulling out the win, thanks to the efforts led by former Canadien Max Domi. During one stoppage of play that led to a scrum, Canadiens rookie Slafkovsky might have bit off more than he could chew when deciding to chirp Max Domi.
Obviously, no one expects the Canadiens rookie to fight Domi, despite the size difference. Domi has much more experience with his gloves off, and probably would have got the best of Slafkovsky.
Domi has improved tremendously as he has found his groove with the Leafs. He has been a steady second and third line center, but more importantly, he has shown he can protect the Leafs stars when he is on the ice.
