My Hockey Idol: Max Domi Wears #13 To Honour His Hero Mats Sundin



Growing up, Max Domi had unfettered access to the Toronto Maple Leafs locker room. And while his father was an undeniable fan favourite, it was Mats Sundin who was Max’s hockey idol. Max and Mats connect to talk about Max wearing No. 13 to honour Mats, the influence Mats has had on Max, and their journeys to the NHL.

  1. This was very wholesome. I have nothing else to say other than Mats Sundin is pure class.

  2. lol he is loaded with money and still rocking the a Mac from probably 2011-2012. What a stud

  3. No sport compares to hockey with the amount of kids of NHLers become NHLers themselves. Baseball has a couple, but no where near hockey.

  4. You'll never find a pair in blue and white like Tie and Mats EVER AGAIN….its depressing but satisfying all at once

  5. Mats left a big big hole when he left. A total class act. These Leafs could use a little of what YOUNG Domi brings to the game. Maybe his physicality would add a spark to this group. Hes' not Domi the elder or Tiger Williams/Colton Orr/John Kordic etc You don't miss much with him offensively. Good hands, good instincts, excellent in the corners and around the net. Would you trade Nylander for Domi straight up?

  6. I’m salty. Bc I remember being a kid when Mats and Tie were teammates. So now I get to feel old.

  7. Mats Sundin is such a classy guy. Just a super quality person. The Swedes sure know how to raise their kids.
    Look at the modesty in guys like Mat and Lidstrom and Naslund, to name a few. All great character guys.

  8. As a swede you'd be glad to see nice comments about Sundin, dont get me wrong, it is. But dont take anything away from Max Domi. Super classy himself and really respectful. Eventho they've known each other for most of Max life, he still adresses mats as "sir". Also pains me to write this since he plays for the habs, but yeah, Max is also a Classact basically.

  9. There is no better Leaf player in history at rising to the occasion and scoring a goal when we needed it most. Our hero in Toronto for so many years.
