Max Domi Out Indefinitely After Offseason Surgery Complications

The Maple Leafs say the setback creates uncertainty for Domi’s start to 2026–27 and could affect Toronto’s roster and salary‑cap choices under its new leadership.

Overview

  • The Maple Leafs announced on Monday that forward Max Domi underwent offseason surgery and will be out indefinitely because of complications from that procedure.
  • Team officials said the surgery treated an issue Domi played through in 2025–26 and that he will work with club medical staff and be re‑evaluated at the start of training camp.
  • The club has not disclosed what procedure was performed, what complications occurred, or offered any timetable for his return.
  • Domi carries a $3.75 million cap hit and two years remaining on his contract, which raises the prospect of salary relief such as long‑term injured reserve if he misses the start of the season.
  • The announcement arrives during a major Leafs offseason under new GM John Chayka and senior advisor Mats Sundin, and his status is now a factor in ongoing roster planning and possible short‑term moves.
