Surprise announcement involving Arber Xhekaj and the wait for him would officially be over and he would be back

The wait is finally over!

According to what Renaud Lavoie, from TVA Sports, just mentioned on BPM Sports, Arber Xhekaj could finally leave the injured list.

He will be back in the game very soon! We love it!

According to Renaud, we should expect Xhekaj to return to the game as early as this Wednesday against the Columbus Blue Jackets 'if all goes well.'

So there is a small asterisk, but clearly, Xhekaj will be back soon!

Let's remember that the robust defenseman hasn't played since last November 16 against the Las Vegas Golden Knights.

So don't be surprised if Mattias Norlinder is sent back to the AHL, to join the Laval Rocket. That would confirm the good news for WiFi.

Details to follow.

Xhekaj, 22 years old, is a defenseman of 6 feet 4 inches and 240 pounds. He has 3 points in 17 games this season, with 47 penalty minutes.

Do you think Jayden Struble should also be sent to the AHL?
