Eric Engels: "Have you paid attention to what the Rempire State Building has done?"
Arber Xhekaj: "How could I not hear about it? He's everywhere right now. Honestly, it's pretty cool for him."
Eric Engels: "What do you think about the frequency with which he drops the gloves and the opponents he has chosen to face?"
Arber Xhekaj: "It's pretty crazy. He gets the invites and he has the balls to do it. Those are big boy fights – six to eight punches to the face, and his face is solidly messed up – but even when he's chased by Reaves all game, he's ready to show up!"
Eric Engels: "I feel like Deslauriers is one of the most intimidating players in the NHL. What do you think of that fight?"
Arber Xhekaj: "It was probably the best fight I've seen in the last 10 years. Guys don't fight like that anymore today. Deslauriers fought like that back in the day, and when a guy wants to go old school, he doesn't hesitate. He doesn't punch lightly, I guarantee you!"
Eric Engels: "When you watch that, do you think you'll end up facing each other?"
Arber Xhekaj: "Obviously! If he stays in the league, we'll probably have a few fights over our career. I've actually played against him in the minors. He knows his role, he doesn't care and he'll do whatever it takes to keep his spot!"
