Domi was one of Montreal’s worst players the last year he was on the team, I wouldn’t trade anyone for him . He’s not a fit .
Eklund Rumor: Domi back to MTL ?

But only a year before that, he was one of our best players. He had the most productive season of any Hab in the last 13 seasons.
He may never achieve that again, but completely discarding him is a mistake. If Ducharme sees a fit, I'd do it for the right price.
he had the best offensive season but was far from being the best player on the ice. He had the kind of season where everything he touched ended up in a goal, he had a ridiculous shooting % at like 20% for a guy that merely scored 15 goals in his 2 previous season. Never been on the Domi bandwagon
...no, he happened to have an off-the-charts lucky season his first year with the Habs...he was still horrid as a whole at centre because he doesn't have the vision or the ability to be a true Force at C...he's a winger and needs to get it in his head that it's the best spot for him for the team...
...again, he was our most productive player due to his ridiculous luck that season, but he was far from our best player...everything went right for him offensively that year, but he was still a disaster everywhere else, including in his own head...Domi is a Galchenyuk-level talent with more grit but also more issues, mostly involving his ability to channel his Father's attitude & demeanor on the ice...that trade, which I was admittedly against at the time, worked out well for the Habs for that ONE year and then Domi came back down the Earth & showed he's not THAT guy...don't want him back and we don't need him back...
No, he played his best hockey with theHabs as a C. That’s indisputable!!

MB would never take a former player back, it would hurt his ego too much,
Domi, Chucky, PK, etc, ain't coming back while MB is here

He was an upgrade on the trash that MB traded for him and has since turned Domi into Anderson.

So he can flip him for a power forward this team hasn't had since Leclair
Meh,
I don't consider Anderson much of an upgrade over Domi, don't forget, Domi was great in his first year with Montreal, and overperformed, everyone got excited, then he flopped, I can see the same thing happening with Anderson and Toffoli, they will not come close to their scoring paces of last season, and anybody who expects them too are simply being unrealistic

I actually think Anderson didn’t have a great year last season overall, and think he’ll be better this coming year.
Toffoli likely won’t repeat the goal scoring show he put on last year and I don’t think it’s reasonable to expect him too. He’ll still be a solid contributor and out play his contract.
Bergevin was a big fan of the 'one red paperclip' story, apparently.
Max needs to play his game. He’s not a perimeter player. In his last season in Montreal he was shooting 40 feet out. He needs to drive to the net. That’s what he did in his first year. He also KO Ekblad.

Would rather sign Bozak for cheap for our 3rd line then get Domi.
Better 2 way player, good on faceoffs, better fit on the 3rd line, cheap and won’t cost us assets. Good short term solution (1 year) until Poehling and Evans establish themselves as the long-term bottom 2 Centers by next season.
The guy also has a ring, Berg loves those players lol
We need to be saving any cap space we have for an eventual trade to address our biggest need which is a top 4 PMD.
I honestly think the Habs can make another deep run if they can address this hole properly (and please no Norlinder talk - we should have learned by now to not rush prospects).
