As far as rookies in the NHL go, we have all been exposed to plenty. Names such as Eichel and McDavid come to mind. We may have forgotten one of the best though, Max Domi, who is of course related to Tie Domi, the noted pugilist.
Unlike his father, it looks like Max is overflowing with skill. Through four games he has six points which is a torrid pace for the young forward. I have a feeling that we will be seeing a lot of plays like the one we see below.
The beauty of it is the sheer skill that he exhibits. You can tell that this isn’t the first time he has made a play like this. The Coyotes have begun the year 3-1, a record no one has expected at all. Players like Domi may keep the team competitive, which is an interesting dilemma for a team that thought it was going to be competing for the top spot in the NHL draft. Either way it should be an exciting year in the desert as their youth movement continues.
