Maple Leafs forward Max Domi, who was one of the team’s better players during the Stanley Cup Playoffs, has shared a heartfelt tribute to his mom on Instagram.
While the Toronto Maple Leafs were eliminated from the ECSF by the divisional foe Florida Panthers after a series win over the Ottawa Senators, one player who can’t have the finger pointed at him is Max Domi.
Domi was one of the more consistent Maple Leafs players during their latest playoff disappointment, scoring 7 points (3G, 4A), including the OT GWG in the opening round’s Game 2.
Domi, who is the son of former Maple Leafs beloved forward Tie Domi, recently shared a heartfelt tribute to his mom Leanne on Instagram.
My mom used to have to wake up at 3 am every single night to test my blood glucose levels when I was a kid. Wouldn’t be where I am without you. Love you mom.
The younger Domi, who grew up watching his dad play in the NHL for the Maple Leafs, was taken 12th overall in the 2013 NHL Entry Draft by the Arizona Coyotes, who are now known as the Utah Mammoth based out of Salt Lake City.
In 2018, he would be traded to the Montreal Canadiens, a strange sight to see considering who his father played for. During a practice session in Montreal, Tie even donned a Habs sweater while skating alongside Max.
Max has since played for the Columbus Blue Jackets, Carolina Hurricanes, Chicago Blackhawks, and Dallas Stars.
He had 33 points (8G, 25A) in 74 games in his 2nd season with the Leafs this year.
