Let’s take a moment to check in on a few Montreal Canadiens players, including brothers Florian and Arber Xhekaj.
The two have been a bit more active on social media in recent days, and they clearly seem to be enjoying a great summer together as brothers.
Just yesterday, they were spotted at the Chris Nilan Golf Classic, and alongside their teammate Alex Newhook, the Xhekaj brothers posed for a photo with a very special guest.”Arber Xhekaj, Alex Newhook and Florian Xhekaj at the Chris Nilan Golf Classic today.”

Yes, it’s Colleen Nilan, Chris Nilan’s daughter!
A great summer together for Arber and Florian Xhekaj
As Florian prepares to potentially crack the Montreal Canadiens’ regular lineup, let’s just say he has some major support behind him.
The two brothers were also recently spotted at a Coldplay concert in Toronto!
Let’s just say it can’t be easy to watch a show standing behind these two giants.
We’re excited to see them in action this fall – and possibly both of them wearing the Canadiens jersey in Martin St-Louis’s regular lineup.
Arber Xhekaj, 24, is a 6-foot-4, 240-pound defenseman who recorded 6 points in 70 games with the Canadiens in 2024-25, along with 118 penalty minutes.
Florian Xhekaj, 21, is a 6-foot-4, 200-pound forward who put up 35 points (24 goals) in 69 games with the Laval Rocket in 2024-25, with 175 penalty minutes.
