![Canadian: when the guys practice battles during training](https://cdn.buminteractif.com/2024/12/Xhekaj.jpg)
First of all, we saw Arber Xhekaj and Lane Hutson pretend to fight. Let’s agree it would have been the end for the Sheriff if he had injured the American tornado during a practice fight, right?

But that’s not all.
They were with another man (who clearly wasn’t Georges Laraque) to do this.
Ever see practice fighting? I really like this.
Always. Be. Prepared.

It’s not a bad thing to have a few things like that during a training. After all, the three players in the video are possibly the three guys most likely to fight.
I’m not sure that knowing two defensemen and a guy who never plays are the most likely to fight (it kills the rhythm to not play with six defensemen after a fight) for the CH… but that’s another debate.
Even if guys like Josh Anderson and Kaiden Guhle have fought recently and Struble along with Pezz are options, it remains that it’s mainly Xhekaj who is the tough guy on this subject.
In any case, he is the one that fans want to see when there’s trouble.
In Brief
– Really.
