Brother…he’s trying to make a team, his spot isn't locked.

Its just dumb, don't care how any of you try to justify it.

There's no way you can justify putting this guy on the ice with 2pts on the line.
The reason he got to the NHL is because he hits hard and makes people play scared. Why would he not play that way if his spot isn't secure?

That wasn't sticking up for a teammate, it was just dumb.

Does he really think he's that secure in his position to take back to back game misconducts and not even be available?

Nah man sorry
first situation he went after a guy that took out a guys knee, I’m ok with that.

This game, he returned almost the same hit on one of their stars players that they did one period earlier. The difference is his rep earned him a major which the sens should have got. Penalty in preseason means squat. However, he sent notice, go after one of our guys, somethings coming.

Love it.

If MSL has a problem than go back to peewee and get us a real coach.

He didn’t neither of those things tonight or the other night.

Struble drilled Greig a few minutes after the hit, that’s how you make him pay, all night.

Not this dumb ass shit.

Miss the point intentionally if you want.

If Xhekaj wants to be a goon, he’s doing himself and the team, a huge disservice.

He’s a much better player than that, he can defend his teammates and be intimidating while using his brain.

Better than keeping a guy who on any given night can leave your D shorthanded because he cant control his emotions.

Nonsense.

The second Xhekaj stops listening to fans like you and realizes he can be a pretty good Dman WHEN HE’S ON THE ICE, the better it will be for his career.

You want to show up for your teammate, do like Struble has this game.
He'll be on the ice, and remain on it, when the season begins. Right now, I'm more than okay with him crossing the line after what took place earlier in the past two games.
