Toronto Maple Leafs hit major roadblock in re-signing Domi and Bertuzzi
The Toronto Maple Leafs apparently hit a major roadblock in their contract negotiations with free agents Max Domi and Tyler Bertuzzi, per Elliotte Friedman.
Domi and Bertuzzi will need new contracts before the start of the season, and while many people believed things would go smoothly between these players and the Leafs organization, a new report shed light on what could potentially come in the way of a deal.
Domi and Bertuzzi's contract negotiations with the Toronto Maple Leafs hit a roadblock according to Elliotte Friedman
In a recent intervention on Leafs Morning Take, Friedman revealed that both players are looking to get a multi-year deal, but the Leafs could be reluctant to give them:
"I know Domi wants some term. Look, I think Max Domi is a perfect Leaf. I think he's going to be happy to be here for a long time. I think Toronto is nervous of term. I think if they can find a term number that makes sense to both sides, then I think it happens."
"Bertuzzi is the interesting one. I also think they want to bring him back. But again, I think the Leafs are trying to be really careful about term, and that's one thing that I was warned, if they lose some of these players, it's probably going to be because of term more than AAV."

Both Bertuzzi and Domi could receive interesting offers on July 1st from teams across the NHL. The Leafs should jump on the occasion to sign them before that date, but Treliving will need to face his fear and give term to players asking for it.
