Seeing a pair of brothers on the same NHL team is always fun. Florian Xhekaj isn’t playing for the Montreal Canadiens this season (unlike his brother Arber), but rather for the CH’s club-school. However, fans of the Montreal club had the chance to see them play together and throw down the gloves in the same game during the famous warm-up game against the Ottawa Senators in Quebec City. And fans got their money’s worth, with several fights along the way and bloodied faces. Like it or not, fighting has always been part of the NHL, but it can certainly be a spectacle.

Florian Xhekaj arrived at Habs training camp last year weighing in at just over 190 pounds on a 6’3″ frame, but with the new measurements for the 2025-26 season, we’ve seen little brother Hanson Xhekaj put on a good ten pounds, now weighing in at 205 pounds.

The Xhekaj brothers’ mother (Simona) recently posted a photo of the breakfast her two giant children eat after morning training, and it’s easy to see why Florian has put on weight.

[content-ads]I actually asked ChatGPT to estimate the number of calories according to the photo and according to the artificial intelligence, they would eat over 1100 calories at breakfast with this meal.

Incredible, all the same.We know that the Xhekaj brothers are massive (especially Arber with nearly 240 pounds on his frame), but it’s not because they’re fat, quite the contrary. According to Anthony Martineau a few weeks ago, Arber has greatly reduced his body fat percentage this summer.

It’s clear to see that he’s in great shape physically, with very little body fat. Florian Xhekaj will need to be even more successful this season in Laval, and if his performances are worth it (and if a hole opens up up at the top somehow), he’ll most likely get his chance with the big club this year.

Let’s see how the two Xhekaj brothers do this season, and if fans will get to see them play in the same game in the regular season, or if it’ll have to wait. spacer title=’Overtime’] – A first win for the Laval Rocket this season.

– Luke Tuch’s big brother with the Oilers? Interesting.

– Alex Formenton (ECJ 2018) wants to return to the Senators, but Steve Staios has given Formenton’s agent permission to talk to other teams.
