We talked about it earlier this month, but many experts have recently noted that Arber Xhekaj's playing time has been rather disappointing, especially considering the current state of the Habs' defensive squad.
However, since this sequence and since Max Lapierre's comments, we have noticed a rather drastic change.
Well, it's going to be similar, if not better, tonight, as the imposing rookie defenseman just got a very interesting promotion from his head coach Martin St-Louis.
Against the Sens, Xhekaj will play on the team's first pair of defensemen, along with the very reliable David Savard.
An important change to note, as the team announced that Jake Allen will be in front of the net, not Samuel Montembeult.
Other than that change, it will be a similar lineup to the one used in the most recent game (minus Owen Beck, of course)
