BREAKING: Montreal Canadiens Shock Fans By Sending Beloved Enforcer Arber Xhekaj To AHL

In a surprising turn of events, the Montreal Canadiens have assigned fan favorite enforcer Arber Xhekaj to the Laval Rocket.

This unexpected move has left fans wondering about the team's strategy and the future role of Arber Xhekaj with the Montreal Canadiens.

Xhekaj doesn't need waivers to go down and the Canadiens need a roster spot for guys playing tonight. We'll see what happens. He will report to Rocket tomorrow, say the Canadiens. Perhaps he does what's akin to a conditioning stint with them until he returns.

The coming days will likely shed light on the reasons behind this decision and whether it marks a temporary adjustment or a more significant shift in the team's lineup.
