Arber Xhekaj and a return to play with the Canadiens: it has just been confirmed, and the defenseman will be in the stands again tonight
There was a pleasant surprise at the optional practice for the Canadiens today, as Arber Xhekaj was present with some teammates.
The towering defenseman caught everyone's attention, and many were wondering if he would be able to make a return to the game tonight.
Martin St-Louis confirmed that it's not the case, as the only change to his lineup is in the goaltending position.
So, Xhekaj will have to wait a bit longer on the press gallery, likely needing a few practices with his teammates.
Cayden Primeau will be the one facing the challenge of stopping the Panthers.
