Arber Xhekaj trade involving Daniel Brière and the Flyers: it's confirmed and the fans have spoken
Last year, the Philadelphia Flyers and their GM, Daniel Brière, showed serious interest in Arber Xhekaj, but Kent Hughes did not yield.
The signing of his two-year contract extension does not guarantee that he will stay with the Canadiens for the long term. With a salary of $1.3 million per season and his status as a restricted free agent at the end of the deal, he is currently highly valuable.
Rumors about Daniel Brière and the Flyers have resurfaced, and we asked you whether the Canadiens should absolutely keep the sheriff for a long time.
Given his high trade value right now, 90% of you want him to stay in Montreal for a long time.
It's incredible to see how much Arber Xhekaj is appreciated by fans, and to be honest, I'm not surprised at all.
I'm among those who hope he stays with the team for a very long time. Finding a player of his caliber is difficult, and he should stay, even if it means Kent Hughes has to let another good young player go.
Let's hope he stays healthy and continues to progress as he did last year, especially when he was recalled from the Rocket and paired with David Savard.
