\t\t\t\t\tAmong all the things that happened last night during the Montreal Canadiens game, one thing to note is that young Arber Xhekaj<\/a> dropped the gloves.<\/p>\n That said, many experts and observers have just identified the real reason why Xhekaj agreed to fight Deslauriers last night, even though his team already had the momentum.<\/p>\n It should be recalled that Nicolas Deslauriers dropped the gloves against Arber Xhekaj’s younger brother during the preseason games<\/p>\n That clearly explains a lot.<\/p>\n “Arber Xhekaj dropped the gloves with Flyers Nicolas Deslauriers — could possibly have something to do with Deslauriers’ fight with Florian Xhekaj<\/a> in the preseason…”<\/p>\n – Priyanta Emrith<\/p>\n Several people share that opinion, and based on postgame comments, it seems to be confirmed.<\/p>\n In the end, it was a good fight that certainly added to the already entertaining show for Canadiens fans watching live from the Bell Centre.<\/p>\n Nicolas Deslauriers, age 34 and originally from LaSalle, Quebec, is a 6-foot-1, 218-pound forward.<\/p>\n He has 0 points in 5 games this season, with 10 penalty minutes.<\/p>\n He was inserted into the lineup at the last minute.<\/p>\n Previously on Habs Fanatics<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\tHABSFANATICS.COM
