Player Discussion Arber Xhekaj: The Sheriff

[Tetragrammaton]

I don’t want him against Lucic. He’s still the big boss. He would pwned Reaves.

Arber can take anybody but those two.

Arber will beat both if they test him. There’s a new Sheriff in town.

Several love taps for the gladiator emerging from the box.

And people will tell you that this stuff doesn't mean anything and that makes me laugh. It's easy to say things from a keyboard but none of us have been the victim of a cheap shot by an NHL player. Kassian ran over the undertaker and no one did anything and that looked bad but karma caught up to the bastard and he got Jack-hammered lol. I love players like this, they are the ultimate team guys.

Someone actually made a meme of that.

 

[HuGort]

Way he fights reminds me of John Kordic

God I love this guy

The Bergevin haters should refrain from praising Xhekaj unless they also admit Bergevin was a maestro of historical proportions.

He made that fast. He got the Kassian fight in it.

Also, he & Riley Kidney are like f***ing twins or something. Freaks me out.

Sometimes it's not even a heavyweight you would expect that knocks a guy out. All it takes is one punch. Little Max Domi knocked Kessler out good.

Erskine was an underrated fighter. He beat Laraque too.

As for Xhekaj, in like 6 years he's gonna put up 50 points.

He’ll be bullying people for years to come. We’re actually blessed to have a physically dominant player like this guy to develop.

Honestly things are surprisingly bright right now. Last year humbled the homers like myself and now balance feels restored.

I highly doubt WiFi even scratches Reaves.

Not so sure about this.
I like what Xhekaj brings to the team and he is tough, but Reaves and Lucic have been top 5 heavy weights for the last 10 years. Time will tell.

Tom Wilson?

 

[BJCOLLINS]

Tom Wilson?

Yeah Wilson is the prototypical alpha tuff guy, he can skate, play & hit.

I remember when we traded for Anderson. Dave Poulin, Bob Mackenzie and Ben Chariot stated that Andy was the one fighter in the league that other fighters let sleep do to his ability to throw down.
I’ve actually watched tuff guys just skate away from Andy in a scrum.

Out of Lucic, Reaves and Wilson, I would not be surprised Wifi has to tango with Lucic first.
Lucic without a doubt will run after him or target a small player while Wifi is on the ice just to provoque that confrontation.
Wilson has a tendency to avoid poking the bear, if the bear looks dangerous.
‘As for Reaves, he reminds me a bit of Laraque in the sense that Laraque felt so superior to every other fighter , that he chose who ‘deserved’ to have a shot at him. If a scuffle happens, Wifi will have to instigate.

 

[KevSkillz4]

Already 19 hits in 5 games. He make me forget about Romanov really quickly.

I'm big fan of Xhekaj game.

Tom Wilson?

He better be careful cause he can be next if he ever plays dirty with us again.

Kind of fun to look ahead at the schedule to find fighting matchups for Arber. Been a while since we had a guy like that.

Romanov who? I couldn’t even picture him on this team anymore. It’s like he was never here.

It's fun to have a guy who is very tough, but I would prefer Arber try to emulate Larry Robinson's style of game than Bob Probert's.
