Montreal Canadiens defenceman Arber Xhekaj is the talk of the National Hockey League.
Appearing on Chris Nilan's Raw Knuckles, the young rookie revealed what Zack Kassian mentioned to him before their fight, to taunt him.
"A couple of guys told me, 'Go back to Costco.' Kassian told me that once. It was pretty funny."
In hindsight, it's hilarious as an insult, especially when you know the rest of the fight between the two players.
