Montreal Canadiens prospect TKOs Ottawa Senators prospect (Video)
Arber Xhekaj has already developed a reputation for being one of the toughest prospects in the NHL. He already has an impressive junior hockey fight card and an ever growing highlight reel of knockouts. Last season Xhekaj knocked out Mark Wooley and was suspended for a gesture he made after the fight.
Today during the Senators versus Canadiens rookie camp, Sens prospect Zachary Massicotte attempted to make a name for himself by challenging Xhekaj. Unfortunately like many others the fight didn't go how he'd planned and he was dropped by a hard shot.
Xhekaj has already developed quite the reputation and could be very close to making the jump to the NHL. Especially as the Canadiens look for players to protect some of their young stars.
