Currently tied for the lead in OHL Playoff scoring with 25 points in 14 games, Domi led the Knights in regular season scoring with 87 points in 64 games collecting 39 goals and 48 assists. He is eligible for the 2013 NHL Draft and was recently listed 19th overall among North American Skaters by NHL Central Scouting in their Final Draft Rankings.
