At yesterday's morning practice, young defenseman Arber Xhekaj was among the extras, along with Chris Wideman. Everything indicated that Martin St-Louis was going to leave him out against the Buffalo Sabres.

So it seemed like Arber's turn to be in the stands, and that's what the duos presented yesterday announced (by the CH). <b>Big turnaround</b>.
