« En fait, je les ai contactés [the Habs coaches] & J’ai dit : « Je m’excuse pour les pénalités, ce n’était pas nécessaire. » Ils ont été géniaux, ils ont juste dit ‘secouez-vous, aujourd’hui est un nouveau jour et bon entraînement.' » – Arber Xhekaj aujourd’hui

That’s good, now stop taking stupid penalties Wifi!
Don’t f**k iy up Arby.
The Sherriff knows when he screws up.
Take a man to acknowledge his mistakes and own up to them publicly.
We good.
He’s been a bit shaky since coming back but that’s expected. Obviously he knows he is being watched and evaluated. That must be very stressful.
Smarten up or you will stay in Laval.
Rumor says he also took a penalty in practice.
BREAKING NEWS – Marty is ANGRY with Arber Xhekaj
In other news, click-bait is click-bait
He’s still a kid. He’s primed to improve by listening to the wisdom of his coaches and being given chances to iterate on his play
They’re putting way too much pressure on this guy. It’s ass backwards. Everyone knows what he brings, and being gritty and mixing it up and fighting is a huge part of that. Having him playing scared of taking penalties and making “mistakes” just neuters his game. We have a ton of bottom pairing quality guys that play a vanilla game. If that’s what they want from him, just trade him. There’s plenty of teams that would line up to gladly take him off our hands and be happy with what he brings to the table.
I get not wanting him to take lazy or stupid/wreckless penalties, but he’s clearly in a place now where he’s walking on egg shells. The team is 6th in the division and 8 points out of the last wildcard spot ffs. A young bottom pairing guy shouldn’t feel like he needs to apologize publicly every time he takes a penalty. It’s not going to be good for his play or development, imo.
