Elisha Cuthbert denies 'death stare' rift with fellow ice hockey WAG

SOMEBODY BETTER CALL Jack Bauer.

Canadian actress Elisha Cuthbert has moved fast to play down any hint of controversy or drama following a death-stare with fellow ice hockey W.A.G April Reimer.

The women were less than pleased when Dion Phanuef [Cuthbert's fiancée] missed a check on a Boston Bruins player that allowed a two-on-one and a David Krejci over-time winner, flicked past James Reimer [April's husband] in the Toronto Maple Leaf goal.

Canadian broadcaster CBC captured the moment when April Reimer turned to look at a stunned Cuthbert. The video soon hit the internet – receiving more than three million views on various platforms – and rumours of a WAG feud soon followed. Here is the video:

Reimer took to Twitter to dismiss speculation of a rift. She explained that ‘a jerk beside us’ made a rude comment after the goal was conceded. Cuthbert, the Calgary native famous for roles in 24 and Love Actually, backed up the explanation:

The Maple Leafs kept their season alive last night with a 2-1 win in Boston that puts them 2-3 behind in the best of seven series. Reimer was ‘star of the game’ with 44 saves. Game 6 takes place in Toronto on Sunday.
