Xhekaj tossed from another game.

[BertCorbeau]

I mean the fact that he was just fined has to factor into the supplemental discipline for doing something dumb again right?

DOPS wheel of justice spin!

 

[jbeck5]

Bad play. Bad player.

 

[notbias]

I am pretty confident Xhekaj will fight Tkachuk anytime he wants. That's a nice exchange, first line player vs 6th defenseman he will take that anyday.

Turtled, he is a coward.

 

[h2]

No point in getting into the eye for an eye logic here, but I do have to say as a fan of the opposing team, I absolutely love playing against Arber Xhekaj. He might be one of the easiest players I have seen in 30+ years of watching NHL hockey that you can easily draw into a stupid play.

Playing against someone like him in a playoff game would be a gift.

 

[tarheelhockey]

Well well well. Look who has his gloves glued on now.

I have no particular problem with this guy to date, but that’s a clown hit and he’s exactly the wrong guy to be turtling when the bell rings.

 

[JeffreyLFC]

His horrible play costs his team during the regular season, too. He’s part of the reason the Habs are annual basement dwellers

He is not. He is the reason all other fanbase cry about his presence though.

 

[KILLger]

Greig is also a diver.

Nice fit with Stutzle.

 

[I Hate Blake Coleman]

He's so stupid. I really hope he gets suspended for this. He deserved a few games for Saturday but just got a fine.

Headhunting is way worse than some gloved punches.

Montreal fans spent 5 days telling everyone how tough X was because Pare turtled when he got jumped just for him to turtle when Tkachuk grabbed him, what a bum.

You clearly don't know what "turtling" is

 

[DaPhazz]

Wow…you are absolutely right.

So many posts from Montreal fans complaining that Pare shouldn’t even be in the NHL.

First Xhekaj assaults Pare with attacks to his head. Then Xhekaj assaults Stutzle with another vicious attack to his head.

Montreal is an embarrassment to the NHL by letting Xhekaj play on their team. Get this clown out of the league before he injures another player.

You are truly a treasure to read lol

Greig building a house right next to Stutzle in the habs heads

Guy is a repeat offender in the preseason.

Bingo. It's just unfortunate that Laine, who wasn't on those teams, was the fall guy.

 

[Baksfamous112]

This whole stick argument is so dumb. It's not like Xhekaj lifted Stutzle's stick or something and that was it. His shoulder was hitting Stutzle's head regardless of whether the stick was there - it was him that caused the stick to hit his face.

You're out of your mind. Put your stick up in front of your face and get hit on the shoulder see if it doesn't gravitate back toward your face.

 

[Juicy Pop]

I think it's time to suspend Pinto for another 41 games

When was the last time your team made the playoffs?

Yakemchuk was probably still a toddler.

 

[FlappyGiraffe]

sad to see that the Habs keep dressing this clown

 

[MoneyManny]

Quebec welfare province queens saying this hit is the same as Greigs need to show me where Greig left his feet on the hit (he didn't) and put his elbow up (he didn't).

Zhekaj did both.

What a little bitch.

 

[Mrfenn92]

 

[TMLeafer]

Absolute xhakass.

 

[Prettyisland]

Both hits being discussed in this thread are warranted of penalties. WiFi’s hit has absolutely horrendous optics. 100% violent intent where as greig was just kind of instinctively a dick head in the moment.

Preseason is a money grab. Teams should get ready with an in-squad scrimmages. I just watch these games holding my breath the whole time

 

[Knave]

The league needs to protect talent. Nobody is showing up to watch the Habs play. They're showing up to watch talent like Greig shit on teams like the Habs.

 

[Masked]

His stick clearly popped his helmet off. And it was a shoulder hit. Elbow was up AFTER the hit. Clearly a late blindside hit like the Greig one

See an optometrist.

 

[Contenderorpretender]

What a guy.

 

[Rob Brown]

You're out of your mind. Put your stick up in front of your face and get hit on the shoulder see if it doesn't gravitate back toward your face.

Not out of my mind, no. Just capable of seeing that even if his stick wasn't in the vicinity that Xhekaj still would have hit him in the head.

 

[All Mod Cons]

Obviously someone else's fault.

He probably shouldn't have been playing but Parros and the Habs.
