In the past few hours, it was time for exit interviews with the Laval Rocket following their elimination at the hands of the Charlotte Checkers and Pascal Vincent's squad.
The interview with Arber Xhekaj's younger brother, Florian, was particularly interesting.
He sent a few strong messages ahead of next season, and we saw the fire and determination in his eyes.. He wants to make waves next year and is more motivated than ever!
His message is crystal clear.
The Montreal Canadiens' brass better take note: Florian Xhekaj will be even bigger come September-and he's ready to shake things up!
That's exactly what he stated during his press conference.
"My goal this summer is to get even bigger!"

Wow! We're talking about a player who already stands 6-foot-4 and weighs 204 pounds!
It's definitely going to get rough at the next training camp.
The Ottawa Senators players better start preparing now-especially given their history with the big brother.
Florian also added this, as reported by RDS:
"I came in pretty confident, I wanted to learn and develop as a player.
I feel like I got exactly what I was hoping for.
Everyone was so welcoming," said Xhekaj, who wants to bulk up this summer.

We can't wait to see the Xhekaj brothers in action next fall-especially now that Florian has a real shot at landing a spot on the Montreal Canadiens roster as early as October.
