@@Droyo12 That's actually a good point. However I don't see Pezz as an NHLer, I honestly don't know why they gave him a 1way contract... Good call up but I wouldn't put him on the starting lineup even with what he brings. Xhekaj would need to be a bit better to be a 4th liner.
@@justfred6863 You're right i think they give pezz a good contract because he's regular, he is mostly never injured and he got heart. I can see florian replace Mike in the end of his contract to take his role on the 4th line!
player like xekaj always have a role in the nhl. they might not play often, but toughness is always something contending teams want during playoff time as long as there's some skill there
I see Arbor as a player who adds toughness but will also get quality ice time on the blue line. Another couple years he could be Larry Robinson material.
I'll tell you what, the Ottawa senators rookie team is debating giving up on hockey, just so they don't have to face another Xhekaj in the rookie tournament!
Rationality says he won't make the team. But life has taught us not to bet against a Xhekaj. The Blackaj Bros could be a very cool story to write in the Habs book :)
You make me laugh... you make me cry... the Hockey Junkie for President!!! Excellent excellent video. Kent knows the family... that alone is why the pick was made. Apples do not fall from the tree toooo far. Awesome Job --- SIR JUNKIE. You need a LIVE show...
Met both Arby and Flo in hamilton recently. They’re the same height. They’re absolute units. I think he can be a third line guy who can be versatile in an nhl lineup along with being a Net front guy on the powerplay like a tkachuk
We cant ever get rid of them Xhekaj brothers. Their value is intangible and no one will ever give us a proper offer. But you know what...I LOVE being stuck with those two
I think we all know how competitive brothers get if you know what I mean. This was a SMART SMART move and I love it. This is one pick that they didn’t fail on.
I met him and arber during the charity event they hosted in Hamilton, Florian and Arber both gain alot of muscle. Going to be interesting to see what florian can do with his size
Coming in just to say this. Pete was a monster back in those days - 6'5" and tough in his early years (he got more "gentle" in later years). Coincidentally, he also played in Hamilton when in the minors. He initially struggled to stay in the NHL after being drafted by Detroit in 1965 and didn't play most of an NHL season until 70-71 (a season where he scored 10 goals in the playoffs). Within five years, though, he turned 30 and his best days were behind him. Still, he scored 86 times in the playoffs wearing a Habs jersey and went +72 in the 75-76 season (one of fewer than 20 players to have done so in NHL history). Either of the Xhekaj brothers would do well to follow in Pete's footsteps but it'd be exciting if they did.
People who say that florian aint endoff skill or what ever...is big brother, Wi-Fi, was not even select at the draft...i dont ear nobody saying is not à good hockey player loll. Love that kind of content!
Please can you make a video about Newhook. Right now he is a mystery like Dach was. Now I love Dach, he reminds my beloved John Leclaire. But Newhook , we need you about him.
No need to convince me I love tough hard nosed players that play with heart.I would like to see Condotta also in the lineup then I feel we are set keeping the opposing teams honest.
Just like every prospect he could make it but I'd see him being a terrific AHL player, alot of people would take that as a bad thing but having a dude like that who can protect young guys and go in front of the net are needed. If he does make the NHL, I see him being like a slightly faster (and definitely taller) version of Gallagher at his current skill level. Cuz let's be honest Gallagher IS overpaid but he's still an NHL player. If Florian can be that at a much MUCH reasonable contract, that's great on a bottom 6.
There's an Inuit joke to that: A man calls his daughter to announce he started working in the Arctic. His daughter asks "Is it in Nunavut or Nunavik?" Dad replies "Nunavit"
Barring horrible injury troubles *knock on wood*, Florian WILL make it and WILL make an impact. Too big, too strong, too determined. AND - he can actually skate.
if he puts in the effort i dont see how he doesnt get his chance a gritty sneaky around the net and determined player we all saw what gally did so[pedal to the floor-ian Xhekaj is 6foot 4 ish i'll keep my eyes on his development for sure
How do you know that this kid is for real, by his heart and determination, his off season weight training and conditioning is right on target. I doubt that he will not crack this years line up but , I could see him playing with the Laval rockets. Don't forget the leafs and Boston have loaded up some military acquisitions , then you're going to see him be called up.. he will be ready for the challenge , at one point or other all underdog's get feed to the wolves, his character will prevail, the fans are going to embarrass him, remember knuckles Chris nilen never back down gave it his all . I routing for him because it allows us route for our selfs as underdog's in this world.
yes a hungry dog on the ice, who knows his brother made it and he can too...I'm all in, call him up and put him on the ice in Montreal and see what happens ...

Enjoy your last day of August.. muhahahaha
I have no idea if he can make it but I'm definitely rooting for him. I hope both of these brothers stay in the organization for a LONG time.
Pezzetta made it, florian will make it to the team no doubt in some year! MTL need power forward to protect the small player

the world needs more Xhekajs!
Can't wait formore re-enforcment. Love these Xhekay brothers alredy. Themorethe merier.

Florian will make it, these kind of players are very rare now.

Sounds like a 6' 4" Gally in front of the net.
These Xjackeyes are worth the risk.. they're hard working and dedicated.. they're a heart of a team... I want em both
Just watched a Montreal draft video. Fowler and Xhekaj were players that Montreal really wanted in this draft.
Arber and Florian are the 48 overall kids you put in career mode with high franchise potential lol
😂😂😂
Arber is already a 80 overall with 95 in fighting.
"If Florian is a grizzly bear, what is Arber?"
@@JoeBine77he's a kodiak 😀
@@Droyo12 he is King Kong
Rationality says he won't make the team.

I hope he makes it; watching the two of them play would be fun, I'm sure.
The little brother generally becomes the toughest of the family because of competition with his older siblings, now that’s a scary thought.

Were they nice? Cool?
DUAL blackeyes from dual Jackeyes GO HABS GO 💕
6,4 and yelling,, Hey you guy's!!! 😂
Hahahaa man that was one of my fav movies when I was growing up lol
You know were all rooting for the kid brother.
Not sure it’s going to happen but would love to see them both in the lineup
Great video junkie I totally agree
Could this become the modern day version of the Mahovlich brothers (Frank & Pete) who together played with the HABS circa 1970's. 👍

Xhek Mate!
Arber and Florian can princess carry me anytime
lmao xd
Going to need to make a new shirt junkie. Black 👀 from Xhekaj”s”👊👊
SURE HE CAN GO HABS GO

give him a few years and I'm sure we will see him in a Habs jersey
Potential to be a real good steal, could be a Tyler Bertuzzi 2.0

I've been waiting for this. Give him more fried bologna and boiled dinner.
Today I learned that I share the same birthday as the Hamilton/Brantford Bulldogs' coach.
There's an Inuit joke to that: A man calls his daughter to announce he started working in the Arctic. His daughter asks "Is it in Nunavut or Nunavik?" Dad replies "Nunavit"
I WOULD LIKE TO SEE COMPARISONS WITH HIS BROTHER AT THE SAME AGE, JUST TO SEE IF KENT SEE THE FUTURE
When is training camp????
@@wst8340 thank you
Tu peux le faire Conway!
One upside if you think arber had his team to heart just imagine now... lil bro is being taken care of, now he's going to war for this team
We needed one protecting Cole in the NHL and one in the AHL protecting the next gen lol
Florian Will make the NHL next year while Arber Will sign an new 5 years deal
Hope so 👌
Barring horrible injury troubles *knock on wood*, Florian WILL make it and WILL make an impact. Too big, too strong, too determined. AND - he can actually skate.
I honestly don’t have the foggiest but I would love it if he did.
@@wst8340
Who said anything about Newhook ? I was talking about Xhekaj’s little brother.
They wouldn't have drafted him if they didn't think he has a chance. I'll be watching him like a seagull overlooking left-over pizza...
Now all we need is another Suzuki and another Caufield
What would his nickname be... Password?
I'm not betting against a Xhekaj...Yall can but not me
Go Florian!
2 HOCKEY JUNKIE VIDEOS IN 1 DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Satan himself wouldn’t fuck with the xhekaj bros
Arber and Florian will win the Stanley Cup as Habs, together. 🔵⚪️🔴
if he puts in the effort i dont see how he doesnt get his chance a gritty sneaky around the net and determined player we all saw what gally did so[pedal to the floor-ian Xhekaj is 6foot 4 ish i'll keep my eyes on his development for sure
Can you imagine if he becomes a clone of Arber!?!? As if Arber alone isn't enough.
Bigger version of Gallagher 🤯
Nunavut 😂
even if he s only 5//8 s the talent of WIFI !.......try him out! Cd be awesome like his bro
The Xhekaj, late bloomers they are
Pezzetta's days are sadly numbered.
pro tip: watch mighty ducks game changers. not perfect. but very watchable. loads of member berries
If K. Hughes fed just baloney and spuds then K. Hughes has spent a fortune. Have you notice this how this puppy food cost, no wonder he grew 2".

Gimme a break. ELITE Prospects talks EVERYBODY up, settle down, Bevis.
2" at 19....... was that measurement taken in high heels? B.S.
He’s also got 3 points in his first two games this season . He’s off to a good start Voorhees . And maybe he was wearing high heels 🤷 lmao
Sorry Florian is a lifer ahl
Ahl sorry
I have no clue if Florian will make it to the NHL, but I do know that Hughes would not have drafted him if he couldn't.
If Pezzetta can so can he
