This time, it doesn't seem to be just a maneuver to work around a rule. It looks like Jayden Struble is indeed earning his spot on the team.
We will likely see Xhekaj again, as he certainly belongs in the NHL. A stint in the American Hockey League will allow him to get back in shape and await a call from Kent Hughes.
