Arber Xhekaj's popularity is growing and even if his future with the Habs is uncertain this year, especially when the injuries return, we know that he will be a regular player on the roster sooner rather than later.
Fans know this and they have literally been "gargling" on the number 72 jerseys. In fact, some sizes sold out in less than five minutes.
Xhekaj is unequivocally the new darling of the Canadiens and it's well deserved with the style of play he offers us night after night.
