From goat to hero, how fitting was it that Max Domi scored the OT winner?



Bryan Hayes joins SC with Jay Onrait for another edition of Harvey’s Hot Takes, where he shares his thoughts on whether it was appropriate that Max Domi played the hero in Game 2 for the Maple Leafs, and whether it feels like Déjà vu in the Battle of Ontario playoff edition

  1. Hayes, you're a fraud! Gaudette ran into Benoit near the opposite face off circle, knocking him into OEL, thus knocking OEL off balance as well, causing both OEL AND Benoit to be unable to get to Gaudette and box him out or tie up his stick in time.

  2. Domi deserves a lot of credit for the goal, but the reason he scored was Benoit picking off the puck, rushing it into the zone, making a smart drop pass, then immediately going to the front of the net full speed, drawing the sens d men with him, jumping across with his big butt right in the face of Ullmark. See the camera angle from the behind the leafs net (not shown in this video) and Ullmark had no clue that a shot was really taken, let alone where it was headed. If Benoit doesn't go quickly to the net and screen Ullmark, he would make a blocker save on that shot at least 9 times out of 10.

  3. love Hayes but he really clings onto the stuff of 2-3 decades ago as if thats all they have or more so just to
    camouflage the more recent 9 years of failures. I promise you Sens fans arent rewatching the 2004 playoffs because of this series today not does anyone in that organization give a f about what happened before some of these players were even born

  4. E-L should never have dropped that puck off behind the net. He left Domi handcuffed. Im not a Maximus fan but that goal wasn’t his fault in the least. Thank God he scored the OT winner though.

  5. for my money, Benoit had more to do with that goal.
    Benoit makes a head's up play in his zone and takes the puck, skates it to the Ottawa zone, drops it to Domi. Benoit then makes a beeline for the Ottawa net and makes the perfect screen. Ullmark never saw that puck.

  6. Nobody talks about how it’s not so great that Toronto were ahead 2-0 and had to go to OT to luckily win the game ?
    Thats the real story.
    Still, a win is a win 🏆
