If Domi would be more comfortable playing the wing, I would keep him, and wouldn't think twice about putting him on the block. Habs need more skilled players, and Domi fits the bill, and is also one of the few players that thrives in a pressure cooker environment like MTL.
Truth is Domi is more suited at Center, and wants to be a Center. and with his expiring contract, Habs are probably looking at how Domi fits long term, and I don't think they see him bumping Danault, Suzuki, or KK from a Center spot.
I'm in the same boat as F50marco. Habs have probably already made up their minds, and Domi will be moved this offseason. Silver lining is the Habs aren't going to just move him for a prospect package, just for the sake of changing things up. Bergevin will try and package Domi with other assets (or take on cap) for an upgrade imo.

How would you compare Danault and Domi's ability to be a 2C in Colorado? And how do you rate either of them compared to Kadri?
I think Domi and Kadri are very similar players.
Beeing younger, Domi's decision making is not always good. By trying too much to go fancy around defensemen, he cough the puck often on zone entry, creating a rush the other way. That can be fixed, but this is why Claude Julien likes him more as a winger.
But in between GL and Nishuskin, two defense conscientious players, he would look good for sure. IMO his 75pts seasom was not a fluke, he has the offensive talent to be a point per game player.
