Earlier in the season, the entire league fell in love with a former COSTCO worker who took the NHL by storm.
Arber Xhekaj made the Montreal Canadiens out of training camp and has been hitting and fighting everything that moves.
Zack Kassian is one of the stronger players remaining in the NHL and one of Xhekaj's first fights of the season was with Kassian, and not only did he win the fight, he DESTROYED him.
When Arizona Coyotes head coach Andre Tourigny joined BPM sports, he revealed what Kassian had to say to his head coach after losing that fight:
Yeah, he's stiff the kid'
Xhekaj has proven to be a solid middle/bottom pair defenceman already in the NHL during his rookie season. He brings an element that a lot of teams are lacking and gaining a lot of respect amongst players and coaches in the NHL.
