Things Get Heated after Arber Xhekaj Flips a Puck at Brady Tkachuk (VIDEO)

Montreal Canadiens defenseman Arber Xhekaj has made it clear to the rest of the NHL that he is afraid of nobody.

During Tuesday's game against the Ottawa Senators, a whistle blew as Brady Tkachuk approached Xhekaj, presumably looking for trouble. After all, these two clubs don't necessarily like one another.

Xhekaj saw Tkachuk approaching and flipped a puck at him. Naturally, that set off Ottawa's captain.

The two were spared a fight, thanks to the officiating crew, robbing fans of a matchup literally everyone wants to see.

Luckily, these two teams play once more on Saturday, February 25th. Maybe we'll get to see the two drop the gloves then.
