Domi says cheering for son Max as a Hab a natural

BROSSARD, QUE. — Former Peterborough Pete and Toronto Maple Leaf Tie Domi says he’s happy to see his son Max feeling so at home with his new team, the Canadiens.

“He works hard every day, he has a smile on his face, so that’s nice to see,” Domi said. Seeing his son so happy, “makes my day.”

Domi, who played for the Petes from 1986 to 1989, said he hasn’t thought twice about cheering for the Canadiens.

“It was actually emotional because I was happy for him — original six. It’s a historical franchise,” he said.
