Craig Berube says Max Domi has been a different, more engaged player in past three games

"The Toronto Maple Leafs ' lack of secondary scoring early on in the season was one of the main negative talking points surrounding the team, but Max Domi did his part to chip away at that narrative with two goals on Tuesday night. He scored the opening goal and the game-winner to help lead the Leafs to a 4-3 win over the Calgary Flames, and overall looked much more confident than he did in the first few weeks of the season."

"Following Domi's effort on Tuesday, Berube raved about Domi's game and what he's capable when he's healthy, confident, and engaged. "I'm sure it'll help," Berube said with a smile when asked if Domi's two-goal effort will help his confidence. "He's been good. Max, for me, the last three games has been a different player. More engaged, and when he's an engaged player, he's a good player.""

"Domi was double-shifted near the end of the game, which ended up leading to the game-winner, and Berube said he did that because he felt that Domi had the momentum to help the team in that moment. "He's got a hot hand right now," Berube continued. "He was getting a lot of opportunities at the net, he was competitive with the puck, skating with the puck, so that's why.""

Max Domi scored two goals, including the game-winner, to lead the Toronto Maple Leafs to a 4-3 victory over the Calgary Flames, displaying noticeably increased confidence compared with earlier in the season. Domi entered the game with one goal and no assists in nine contests and a minus-7 rating. Over the previous three games he appeared more engaged, producing more opportunities at the net and skating assertively with the puck. He received extra shifts late in the game and converted momentum into the decisive goal. The Maple Leafs face consecutive road games in Columbus and Philadelphia amid a front-loaded home schedule.
