Arber Xhekaj takes on Nicolas Deslauriers for second fight in as many games
After dropping the mitts during Thursday's game against the Columbus Blue Jackets with Mathieu Olivier, Montreal Canadiens rookie defenceman Arber Xhekaj was at it again.
After laying a big hit on Flyers forward Patrick Brown, Nicolas Deslauriers comes in to defend his teammate and takes on Arber Xhekaj in a heavyweight tilt.
Deslauriers lands a few good punches on Xhekaj, before the pair fall to the ice and then head to their respective locker rooms for the remainder of the second period.
Arber Xhekaj lands a beautiful hit, has to fight Nic Deslauriers over it.
Close, but I think D-Lo gets the nod here. pic.twitter.com/fXJr2VzGYn Matt Drake (@DrakeMT) November 20, 2022
