Sanction: The NHL has just made an announcement regarding Arber Xhekaj
After the brawl between Arber Xhekaj and Ryan Reaves, the word that spread everywhere is that the robust defenseman for the Montreal Canadiens was ejected from the game.
That's what the referee announced.
However, the NHL has just made an announcement and sent a memo to clarify everything.
In the end, Xhekaj will be back in the second! The official misspoke!
Good news.
"The referee announced a 'game misconduct', but it is actually a 10-minute penalty for Xhekaj. He will return in the second period."
The Sheriff will be back on duty in the second.
