Arber Xhekaj almost fights Ottawa Senators captain Brady Tkachuk
There doesn't seem to be a fight Arber Xhekaj is afraid to get involved in. He won a fight against Zach Kassian in his first NHL game, and tonight, he nearly fought Brady Tkachuk.
After shooting a puck into Tkachuk in the dying seconds of the second period, we got very close to dropped gloves. Unfortunately (or fortunately for Tkachuk), officials got involved quickly before anything could escalate.
Being divisional rivals, it's hard to imagine we won't see Xhekaj and Tkachuk duel one day.
