The National Hockey League released an interesting chart in the last few hours about the Montreal Canadiens' young defenceman, Arber Xhekaj.
Here is the translation:
"Was passed over 3 years into the draft before the Canadiens invited him to their rookie camp in 2021.
Got passed over 2 years in the OHL draft before joining Kitchener.
Worked at Costco when the 20-21 season was cancelled. Also had a job building tennis courts.
Signed his first professional contract in October 2021 and scored his first goal on October 22, 2022."
