Arber Xhekaj Gets Rocked In A Heavyweight Fight
Arber Xhekaj, known for his heavyweight reputation in the league, has quite the record, but the sophomore still has much to prove.
In tonight's game, Xhekaj aimed to bolster his reputation but fell short.
Tanner Jeannot delivered a significant hit on Juraj Slafkovsky, the former first overall pick, which prompted Xhekaj to take action.
Chasing down Jeannot, Xhekaj engaged in a fight, but the outcome didn't favor him.
Both players received 5-minute majors for the fight. Unfortunately, Xhekaj's efforts couldn't ignite his team, as the Habs still trail 4-0 after two periods.
