The Montreal Canadiens prospects took on the Ottawa Senators prospects on Sunday during the showcase tournament and Arber Zhekaj was definitely making a name for himself and angered quite a few of the Ottawa Senators players.
Xhekaj is one tough customer and he definitely has a reputation for it. He made quite a few hits during the game on Sunday and one of them made Senators prospect Zachary Massicotte feel the need to step up and defend his teammate and fight Xhekaj.
But this fight wasn't the only drama that occurred on Sunday. During the post-game press conference, Xhekaj said that a few players on the Senators crossed the line with some of their comments.
Xhekaj mentions he talked the officials because someone on the Senators was making offensive comments of some kind on the ice, and he "wasn't having that"
