- Max Domi jouait au golf...quand il a regardé son téléphone...

- Il se dit SUPER EXCITÉ..

- Déçu de ne pas avoir eu sa chance avec Claude Julien...

- Mais AU TOP MENTALEMENT pour devenir 2e centre derrière Pierre-Luc Dubois...

"I had eight missed calls, four from Montreal Canadiens GM Marc Bergevin and four more from the 614 area code in central Ohio.

“I guess I was a little late to the party,”.

“I’m really, really excited to be part of a team that has a lot of upside. It’s a well-coached team with some really good players and some of the best defensemen in the entire league. Any time you play against Columbus, you know it’s going to be a tough game. I want to help in any way possible."

“My dad (legendary NHL brawler Tie Domi) has always enjoyed Columbus as a team. Whenever we played them, he’d always be in my ear, saying, ‘Be ready to play. It’s a really good team over there.'”

“It’s a little strange being traded for one of your best friends,”.

“That’s the biggest thing, I’m super excited to go to a place where you’re wanted. I spoke with Jarmo. I haven’t had a chance to talk with Torts (coach John Tortorella) yet, but I’m excited for that phone call, too.

“I spoke with (captain) Nick Foligno and a couple of other guys, too. They’re excited, and I’m excited to be part of that group.”

“It was a super-weird situation. “I’d be lying to you if I said I knew what was really going on. There wasn’t a lot of communication there. I was just trying to figure out what was going on. I wasn’t really told why or what I had to do to work my way up (the lineup), so … that’s just how the game goes. I’m not the coach. I was put in certain situations and, unfortunately, I wasn’t able to help the team as much as I would have liked to.

“It’s a learning experience for me. Take that and grow from it. But the best part is, it’s all behind me now.”
