Olivier is very likely THE heavyweight in the league.
Xhekaj lost, it happens. It was a great fight and I honestly think it gave the players some energy.
You're not going to win them all. Bob Probert lost fights.
Bob Probert would be too much to handle for the league and players in this day and age, but that's another story.
He lost, he hopefully learn a new trick, or two or better timing to throw a punch, or something and they won't have to fight again as Olivier will be a hab next year and for the rest of his career..

It happens, you can’t win every fight. Arber got him in their first fight, Olivier won the second, no biggie.

lol the way people talked I thought Arbs got his ass handed to him. I honestly agree that Xhekaj landed better punches but it was close enough that who cares really.

No,
He lost the fight,
But he didn't get his ass handed to him.
It's the first fight I've seen him lose though.
The aura is gone.

He lost against Deslauriers, I'm not seeing it the same way you are. It looks like Arbs slipped and fell, he didn't get rocked. He hit Olivier with a few bombs, it was a close tilt, nothing to be ashamed of.

Damn, so he lost 2 fights already?

Are you sure he slipped and lost his balance? look again.
Olivier is strong guy and probably a better technical fighter (i.e less wild and more technique)
It was a formidable effort though,
But maybe Xhekaj should pay for more lessons with Laraque

Happy to see Xhekaj being Xhekaj out there. I just need to see the clapper abit more and I’ll be happy.

Yeah I think he can still throw em, but Olivier and Deslauriers are big boys, tough for Jackeye to throw around like some of the other fights he has one. I hope we get another tough guy in the forward group to help offset some of p***yes we have, since they won't play Pez. Olivier or Deslauriers would have been nice on this team still.
that shot is so underused , imagine hiding a 105mph clapper .. only in Montreal lol

You sold a dead bird to a blind kid????
Hey, look what happens when you let your physical tough guy do his thing - he assists on the captain’s game winning goal.
Xhekaj’s scrap was the “TSN Turning Point.” Comes back on and plays his best hockey of the season, great pass, and a force all over the ice after.
