or he straight up earns himself a spot next year. I could see it

In a redraft does he get drafted closer to the 1st round?

 

[BLONG7]

Wanna see this kid on a line with his big brother!! What a 4th line, energy and hitting etc
Make the Sherriff a forward and we are off to the races!!

 

[Michoulicious]

He 100% plays in the NHL.

No way he doesn't find a way.

 

[badfish]

I'm totally in the anti D to W position transition train but can you imagine Arber and Flo on the same line as LW - C? I hope they ask Arber to practice it a bit.

I'm not opposed to this if there ends up being no room for Arber on defense, he apparently played forward his first year in the OHL.

 

[Michoulicious]

It's scary how fast Florian has progressed. He needs another 20 pounds of muscle and he will be a meaner Anderson.

We should NOT sign Armia when we have this many kids chomping at the bit to make the jump.

He doesn't skate like Anderson... Few do.

I see more of a Wilson type of player... Which is crazy to say out loud, but still, this what I see.

 

[Beaker]

Sometime in the near future we’ll have both Florian & Arber sharing the penalty box at the Bell Center and I’m ready for it.

 

[Saundies]

If this kid can pan out, he's the exact type of guy you need/want on your bottom 6 -- hard as nails with some skill. These guys make the difference in the playoffs.

Could easily see him making the team out of camp next year

right after they trade his bro, because you can't have two tough guys in Montreal after 1993

My concern is that he is still only about 195 pounds on a 6'4 frame. Optimally he needs to be about 210. To put on that much weight without losing speed takes time.

We were outclassed physically by Washington Capitals. In the first round of the 2025 NHL playoffs.

The Montreal Canadiens missedou physical players like Florian Xhekaj. Who can be physical. And who can score goals too.

Pretty sure those are still combine stats n such

I'd wager he's over 200 now

[Mrb1p]

Unsure why people still care about him

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Byron is working on the contract lowball already, he’s a real fan

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

 

[OldCraig71]

Hell yeah buddy

I just saw Josh Anderson with hands. Beautiful goal!

 

[Tyson]

That speed to the outside was impressive

 

[WeThreeKings]

His model sucks so bad. It's just points equivalency. Florian production for his usage is insane and should have a massive NHLe.

 

[windycity]

I like Flo but some people are really underselling Beck. I think has a higher likelihood to play NHL C than Flo anyway just based on skating but we'll see. That's not to say Flo isn't also a strong prospect

 

[LaP]

His model sucks so bad. It's just points equivalency. Florian production for his usage is insane and should have a massive NHLe.

Not only his model is bad but it looks like he thinks Troy Brouwer was a terrible player. Brouwer was sadly overpaid and under a bad contract to end his career but he was a pretty useful player to have in his prime.

Sometime in the near future we’ll have both Florian & Arber sharing the penalty box at the Bell Center and I’m ready for it.

Imagine a penalty bench with both Xhekajs laughing on on side, and both Tkachuk brothers with bloody noses on the other bench.
Book it, it will happen one day!
