Jesse Metcalfe Recalls Going To Extreme Physical Lengths For 'John Tucker Must Die'

It’s rare that we talk to you about football here, but this story deserves a lot of attention. Thursday night was the first round of the NFL draft, and several quarterbacks were selected. The Minnesota Vikings drafted J.J. McCarthy with the 10th overall pick.
During an interview later in the evening, McCarthy seemed to be disturbed. He was getting a call on his phone, except it wasn’t from just anyone.Getting a call from @WayneGretzky?@jjmccarthy09 is going to fit right in here in M

The Senators’ season fell short of expectations. They fired their head coach, D.J. Smith, in December and temporarily replaced him with Jacques Martin. The strategy didn’t change much in Ottawa, and the team finished 26th overall in the NHL standings.
Ottawa must therefore find a new head coach this summer, and it seems that one candidate is already on the radar. Elliotte Friedman revealed on his 32 Thoughts podcast on Friday that the Senators are in discussions with Craig Berube.El

Since the start of the playoffs, thousands of Maple Leafs fans have been gathering to watch their favorite team play outdoors. So far, so good, and there don’t seem to have been any outbursts.
In Vancouver, no rallies have yet been organized by the city for the first two playoff games. The team was starting off with two home games, which may explain the absence of a rally.
The problem is, there still isn’t one on Friday night, when the Canucks play in Nashville. Vancouver Mayor Ken

Right now, the Coyotes players and staff are in a period of adjustment.
They arrived in Salt Lake City earlier this week, and can finally think about the next step.
The players seem excited about what’s to come, by the way.
Having been so well received by the new fans in Salt Lake City, it certainly helps morale.
It must have been difficult for the players to play in a 5,000-seat amphitheatre that was never full…
And to be loved like that must be pretty special.One player (whose id

Kent Hughes and the Habs management team are gearing up for the upcoming draft.
They’re currently at the World Under-18 Championship, spotting the best talent for the 2024 draft…
And that’s important, because the Habs will still have a chance to get a good draft pick this year.
Yesterday, Vincent Lecavalier, Kent Hughes, Martin Lapointe and Nick Bobrov were spotted in the stands watching Canada’s game against Sweden.
They had the opportunity to see Tij Iginla in action,

Since leaving the Habs, Jeff Petry hasn’t been the good defenseman he was in Montreal.
He’s slowing down considerably, and it’s showing in his stats.This season, in a Red Wings uniform, Petry collected three goals and 24 points in 73 games… A performance that leaves something to be desired when you consider that he has a predominantly offensive style.
He’s nearing the end of his career, with one year remaining on his current contract.
That said, at 36, Petry still

The situation surrounding William Nylander is strange.
Why is it strange?
Because he’s been able to play in all 82 of his team’s games this season… But we’ve yet to see him in any of the three games of the Leafs vs Bruins series, as he’s absent.
Obviously, he’s a big part of the Toronto team, and that’s why everyone’s trying to find out what’s bothering him.
The media tried to get some answers out of him after the team’s practice toda

Mike Matheson scored 62 points for the Canadiens this season. It’s a season worthy of the Canadiens’ greatest defensemen of the past few decades, let’s face it.
He’s not a perfect defender, and defensively, it’s not easy. But the positives he brings to the table far outweigh the negatives.
On this subject, Arpon Basu (The Athletic) has written a piece in which he mentions that the main player is aware of the fans’ criticism of him and that it’s getting

Two years ago (2021-2022), the Canadiens recalled just about everyone they could for the holiday season. Remember when COVID-19 hit Dominique Ducharme’s club?
Even Cam Hillis, who played for the Lions, got his chance.
The only forward to be overlooked was Jean-Sébastien Dea. The Quebec forward had a great season in Laval, but even so, he never got his chance at the NHL level that year. And he didn’t understand why, either.What was in it for them to just give me a little look,

Damn, I’m tired.
No, I’m not talking about the multiple injuries that constantly sideline Lassi Lappalainen every time he comes on and plays a few minutes in MLS.
The information comes directly from Laurent Courtois.Lassi and Sosa were not at training yesterday.
– Maxime Truman (@MaximeTruman) April 26, 2024I’m outraged this morning by the front page of the Journal de Montréal. Not because it’s not good or because it’s clickbait, as the other guy would

At the next camp, the Habs will have a lot of center players fighting for a spot.
Nick Suzuki, Kirby Dach, Alex Newhook, Jake Evans and Christian Dvorak, barring a change of plan (injury, transaction, etc.), are sure to make Martin St-Louis’ club.
To this, we’ll have to add the prospects who will grow (Owen Beck’s name, among many others, comes to mind) or the off-season additions. Sean Monahan, maybe… or maybe not?
But there’s one name that shouldn’t be dis

For about a week now, the NHL playoffs have been underway in the NHL. And while the hockey has been good, it hasn’t been the tightest series in history.
It is in the West (for the most part, at least)… but in the East?
Three teams have yet to taste victory and, if all goes wrong, may never win in the 2024 playoffs. And the Maple Leafs may have one win, but…

All of which goes to show that the NHL should not increase the number of playoff teams. Imagine how m

The Islanders and Lightning found themselves in the same situation last night.
They were trying to bounce back after losing their first two games away from home in their respective series… But it didn’t work out.
Let’s see how it went:
After meeting in the 2023 Eastern Conference Final that featured four one-goal games and the sixth-longest game in postseason history, the @FlaPanthers and @Canes each moved within one win of advancing to the Second Round. #NHLStats: https://t.

There’s a lot going on in women’s hockey these days. Montreal’s LPHF team played to a packed house at the Bell Centre on April 20, and on Thursday night confirmed their playoff berth.
But now the organization’s presence has been taken to another level as three players made an appearance in the STAT daily final.
Marie-Philip Poulin, Ann-Marie Desbiens and Ann-Sophie Bettez appeared in the series that has replaced District 31 on Radio-Canada for the past two years.

The Penguins are in a rather uncomfortable situation. On the one hand, the veterans want to take advantage of their last moments together to win, but on the other, there aren’t many high-calibre prospects in the organization. It would be tempting for Kyle Dubas to clean house and split the team at zero.
Sidney Crosby’s future may well dictate the direction the organization takes. Remember that the Penguins captain will be spending the final year of his contract next year ($8.7 milli

Samuel Montembeault is coming off an eventful season. Initially part of a three-man rotation, his role grew after the deal that sent Jake Allen to the Devils.
Despite some tougher numbers at the end of the season, the goalkeeper made good progress, while being given greater responsibilities. He was tasked with facing the NHL’s top teams and did very well indeed.
After the conclusion of the season, he chose to rest this summer, rather than go to the World Hockey Championships. He will also

P.K. Subban is a guy who takes up a lot of space.
He’s good in front of the cameras because he’s got a big personality and doesn’t hold his tongue.
That said, he made a joke yesterday on live ESPN television, and it didn’t sit well with some people.
The context is as follows: the cameras were filming Jack Eichel before the Stars vs Golden Knights game, while he was cutting his sticks.
Afterwards, Subban said that he’s not a carpenter (because Eichel was cutting his

Jesperi Kotkaniemi never became the player we thought he would.
The Habs selected him with the 3rd pick in the 2018 draft, because they saw him as a future number-one center…
But KK left for Carolina in 2021, and he’s still being talked about for all the wrong reasons because of his performance.
When you look at his offensive performance since joining the Hurricanes, you realize that he hasn’t improved.
In fact, he’s actually regressed this season:29 points in 66 games

Mike Matheson’s value is high.
The reason is simple: he’s in his prime, he just finished 9th in scoring among defensemen this season…
And he earns a salary of $4.875 million a year, making him a bargain for a number-one defenseman on a National League team.
Still, the idea of trading him to maximize his value has been discussed often enough, and opinions are divided.
On the one hand, many think that the Habs have the luxury of being able to count on him and that they should k

Kent Hughes has a plan for the summer, and it’s no secret.
The Habs GM would like to add a scorer to his line-up, a guy who can produce offensively and who will play on the top-9 in Martin St-Louis’ line-up.
In other words, we can expect a transaction similar to that of Kirby Dach and Alex Newhook.Now the question is: which player fits the Habs style, and who’s mentally tough enough to play in an intense market like Montreal?
This was one of the topics of discussion on the rec

If the Canadiens don’t have a great team on the ice, they do have a great team to follow in the off-season.
After all, you’d think the Habs would be looking for a forward. And according to David Pagnotta, DG Kent Hugheswill be targeting a scorer.
But who will it be?
Trevor Zegras’ name keeps coming up in discussions. I don’t know if he’s enough of a scorer for Kent Hughes… but we’re mostly wondering about his attitude.
It’s all well and good to s

Defensively, the Habs won’t have much salary negotiation to do with players for the 2024-2025 season.
Mike Matheson, David Savard, Jordan Harris, Lane Hutson, Kaiden Guhle, Johnathan Kovacevic, David Reinbacher, Logan Mailloux, Jayden Struble and William Trudeau are already under contract.
Adam Engstrom, if he signs, will have an entry-level contract. Mattias Norlinder will surely leave. Justin Barron, who finished the season poorly, will have no bargaining power. And Arber Xhekaj, the &l

The NHL playoffs are currently in full swing, and according to the figures I’ve been given, hockey fans have been watching games on TVA Sports and Sportsnet in relatively large numbers since last weekend. Even if the Habs aren’t taking part!
Are you still following it? Have you found “your” team since the Habs stopped playing?
Do you “ root” for the Panthers, Canucks, Jets, Islanders or Avalanche?

The Habs have too many defensemen in their player bank. Eventually, at least one of them will have to be traded, as you know.
We suspect that the plan has always been to recreate the Alexander Romanov for Kirby Dach trade (it was done in two trades… but we understand each other), but for the past two years, it hasn’t happened.
But to join Dach, the top line and the club’s other forwards with top-6 potential, it would have to happen soon. Especially since, if nothing happens,
