Last-minute announcement involving Arber Xhekaj and Logan Mailloux
While the Laval Rocket faces off tonight against the powerful New York Rangers AHL team and Alex Belzile, the Wolf Pack, there's an interesting lineup change.
Jean-François Houle is mixing up his pairs and will team Arber Xhekaj with none other than Logan Mailloux against the formidable Wolf Pack!
The game will be broadcast on TV on RDS and on the radio on BPM Sports.
"After playing his first game in the American League on the left of Brady Keeper on Wednesday, we will see Arber Xhekaj on the Rocket's first pair with Logan Mailloux tonight. It's the first time in 17 games that Mailloux is separated from Tobie Paquette-Bisson." - Via Anthony Marcotte
Mailloux, 20, has accumulated 10 points in 21 games this season with the Rocket. (21 penalty minutes and a -12 differential)
Xhekaj, 22, has 3 points in 17 games this season with the Canadiens and no points in 1 game with the Rocket.
We are excited to see them work together. It promises to be exciting!
