Arber Xhekaj has accustomed us to his physical appearance throughout his career.
This season, he seems to have matured in his game, he who does not put himself out of position as often as before.
The last fight of the colossus of the Montreal Canadiens dates back to October 5, when the CH faced the Ottawa Senators in pre-season.
Approaching the halfway point of the match, Xhekaj and Mathieu Olivier engaged in a furious fight.
This was also Xhekaj’s first fight this year in the regular season.
Rather unusual of him, but we feel that he is waiting for more opportune moments to throw down the gloves.
We remember that the two tough guys have already clashed in the past.
The first encounter didn’t leave us wanting more, as we can see below.
Definitely, there may be more fights between the two in the future.
The next clash between the Canadiens and the Blue Jackets will be November 27.
The two tough guys will be able to carry out a trilogy of fights, if of course both players are in uniform that evening.
We can say that the first confrontation was to the advantage of the Habs defender, if we exclude his fall at the end.
On the other hand, this rematch leaned more to the advantage of the Quebecois of Jackets.
Prolongation
Arber Xhekaj left momentarily towards the locker room after the fight, but returned behind the bench moments later. More fear than harm for the defender.
