I always have been a big fan of Cates and Desnoyers. I think we accept that
Nope
ask me last summer i'd agree
I got to take in a game Florian Xhekaj played in after he switched to Center
We NEED him as he controls the space between the circles infront of the next like a Pro
Moving him to Center just helped him focus solely on that role rather then battling on the boards for pucks then going to the net as a screen
Now he's controlling the play at a high rate of success by using the Xhekaj Family Trait in his Size and Power.
Arber walked into the NHL and Retired Kassian one of the bigger NHL fighters while everyone said he wouldnt push around Men like he did teens in Junior
I wouldnt underestimate Florian cause he' molded his game after his favorite players Brady Tkachuk and his Brother Matthew really loving playing that mental warfare side to hockey. He's one of the top fighters win wise in the OHL without being a PIM leader and is a 1/36 people in the OHL to score 30 Goals this year.
Im telling you check into Florian's Progress since Brampton Bulldogs made changes in late November , he's been a Stud
He's got a MUCH More Accurate Shot then his Brother even though not the same amount of power
He's not as hard of a hitter as his brother but still lays the boom
While Arber gets in more penalty Troubles , Florian become a reliable 2 PK unit and PP 1 unit player
Polar opposites who are similar in size and attitude but Florian is more Lean as Speed and getting faster is his main focus
While Arber is looking more at being able to out muscle literally everyone in the NHL and pull 2 players at a time out of scrums like Weber used to.
They're cheap in house developed Playoff Players who will showcase their talents and win overall all fans after just 1 Playoff game im sure.
