Tie Domi

Tie was a Leaf for 10 seasons, and was the acknowledged enforcer on a team that included tough customers like Wendel Clark, Kris King, Shayne Corson, Darcy Tucker, Gary Roberts and Wade Belak. In his time in Toronto, he garnered 2,265 penalty minutes, the franchise record. He also set a franchise record with 365 minutes in 1997-98.
But lest one think Domi had little to offer, he did manage to score 84 goals (8 game winners) and 196 points in his time as a Leaf. He scored more than 10 goals three times, and had career highs in goals (15) and points (29) in 2002-03. Controversial as some of his antics were, Domi provided an element of toughness that helped the Leafs of the late 1990s and early 2000s find success.
