Since the beginning of the camp, including the Rookie Tournament, Arber Xhekaj shows us that he is not just a bully. Yes he is very solid, as proven by his three fights, where he looked very good, but he also knows how to play hockey.

The defenseman scored a great goal against the Ottawa Senators:

In the OHL, Xhekaj's game was no different, even in the opinion of TSN sports commentator Gord Miller, the defenseman was terrifying:

At only 20 years of age, Xhekaj is becoming indispensable to the Tricolore as he acts as a police officer on the ice. In fact, TVA Sports reporter Marc-André Perreault revealed Xhekaj's nickname when he played in junior.

« Xhekaj's nickname in junior was 'the sheriff'." - Marc-Andre Perreault

A nickname that should follow him to the NHL.
