At the start of the Montreal Canadiens' rookie camp, the youngsters underwent physical tests, including weight checks and measurements.
The results have been revealed and there were a few surprises, especially regarding Arber Xhekaj's younger brother.
Xhekaj has grown taller and bulkier!
The Canadiens' recruiting team was spot on when they described him as a "unicorn," just like his brother.
While many criticized the fact that Florian Xhekaj was much shorter and more slender than Arber last season, he has incredibly grown taller and bulkier over the past few months.
He's slowly but surely becoming a beast himself.
He went from 5 feet 10 inches to 6 feet 2 inches, and now he stands at 6 feet 3 inches, according to the official measurements taken this week.
He has also put on weight!
Verdict: Florian Xhekaj is now a massive young man standing at 6 feet 3 inches and weighing 188 pounds!
There's something special in the genes of this family, and it will be really interesting to track young Xhekaj's progress.
He'll likely add around twenty more pounds in the coming months.
"Florian Xhekaj went from 6'2" 175 lbs to 6'3" 188 lbs a few months later. Unicorn."
