Bang on !! Did you guys see him pop Rempe and the visor busted off his helmet!!
He’s technically not the best fighter, getting better…but he’s incredibly strong and a big puncher. Reaves might have been all amped up Saturday but he’s 37 and visorless and well aware of what Arber can do to his face 😆

He's playing the best hockey of his career right now.

Alot of core pieces are playing well so he's kinda going unnoticed. This is a guy alot of people weren't sure could even hang in the league so good on Arber for playing really well all while being the biggest bad ass in the league
 
He absolutely flattens guys when he gets them in his sights, and he doesn’t chase the big hit nearly as much. He’s becoming a very dependable defender, and a guy that other teams avoid when possible. The team plays much bigger when he’s there, and other teams aren’t running at the Habs nearly as much now.

I wish he was given the opportunity to use his massive shot more often, maybe on the second unit powerplay, but overall he’s improved, and turned into a steady, physical, shutdown defender… who also happens to be one of the top heavyweights in the game.
