Hopefully Sens management saw this and ships it off to the league. The retribution angle should sink Xkehaj.
Xhekaj tossed from another game.

How do you think it's any different?
Both hits were late? Check.
Both hits could be considered blindside? Check.
Both hits had players raising their arms slightly? Check.
Both hits didn't have main contact points of the head (or possibly even any contact point)? Check.

He was going for head with his elbow. He missed, if he connected he would be gone. Greig hit shoulder to shoulder...yes it was a penalty for being late but it was a hard hit. If you cant see that i dont know what to tell you.

Almost every team in the league would pick him up if he was put on waivers, including the Senators. Don't kid yourself.

You have no idea what he was going for, stop acting like you do. It's absolute bullshit and you know it.
He is handsome and a complete pushover. I'm sure lots of organizations and their people would try picking him up.
Every NHL roster though? You sure see a lot of things most Habs fans and the fans of 31 other teams don't.
It's the same hit but players of various sizes change the final result.
Maybe he should talk to his own teammate about not playing like an idiot in preseason first.

Assuming something is lost in translation, it was a perfect example of a tortue. Does that make sense now?Getting pretty loose with the term “turtling” herethey both jump at each other loll
When a guy keeps his gloves on and covers his head with them, that's the definition of a turtle.

I didn't say every, I said almost every. And yes, teams would most definitely claim him and drop some spare 7th defenseman who is just there for to be a stop-gap. Would he start for every team? Hell nah. He doesn't start every game for Montreal. But almost every team would take him.

He had the sun in his eyes, he was shooting against the wind, his dog ate his homework.

lol at Sens fans trying to convince themselves Xhekaj turtled against Tkachuk. The ‘never been in a playoff game’ captain didn’t even come back after being taken down first.
Greig's hit was to the neck and head and a blind side hit. What Xhekaj was intending to do is IRRELEVANT. Only what happened - Stutzl'e stick to his own face is. Otherwise every bad hit thrown that completely miosses would be a penalty. Anyone who doesn't see that needs glasses.

I have no dog in this fight but you did leave out Dach being 6’4 220 and stutzle being 6’ 190 and Wifi being 6’4 240. Wifi is easily going to hurt someone way easier in a meaning less pre season game then 185lb Greig is

Just in case you need help reading, that's Jake Evans, not Arber Xhekaj. Nice try though!

Refs ruled one a 2min and the other a major penalty. I guess you are always right? Ill stick with the refs who know their job

X’s teammates will do something significant. The skilled Habs (especially the little ones like Caufield) don’t want rough stuff. They will tell x to simmer down. The Habs couch is little. He knows what it’s like for the little players when their teammate is running around targeting other clubs elite skill. That makes the Habs elite skill, especially the little guys, targets. X is going to get it from his teammates and head coach.

Perhaps the other players should stop landing dirty hits on our players
since the league and the dogshit refs does nothing to stop this , then our players have to do it ourselves. It's tiring to see our players going down because of scrubs , Xhekaj doing the dirty work that everyone would like a player to have in his team .
stop complaining. They sure went quiet real quick after

I don’t think he should be suspended for the hit (and neither should Grieg). They were both late hits that shouldn’t have happened but if he does get a game or two, Grieg should get the same imo
