Heavyweight tilt. Some nice shots landed by Xhekaj. Bit of a cheap start by Rempe.

Rempe dummied again. For a "throwback" guy who's only on an NHL roster to fight, he sure is pretty bad at it. Guy can barely handle middleweights- he would've been eaten alive if he played 20-30 years ago.

Edit: Didn't realize Xhekaj is as big as he is but my point still stands.

Arber Xhekaj is a HammerBoy, like me. Loved watching him with the Hamilton Bulldogs, so good as a player and tough as nails. Rumpled Rempe, as expected.

Surprised he didn't do something stupid again. That's the only way he can get his name in the hockey headlines

6'4" and 245 pounds...very big by NHL standards

His little brother playing in the AHL is 6'4" and 205...still growing

I knew he was a good fighter and a big dude but I thought he was more of like a 6'2", 220 guy... I was admittedly surprised to see his actual height/weight.

Friedman said he can't recall another case like the hit on Poehling where the on ice refs did a video review of a hit, deemed there to be no penalty at all, but then DOPS later handed out a decent sized suspension. Very unusual and controversial situation.

Florian is a pretty good player too. Montreal was smart to draft him after how well Arber turned out.
