'Jeopardy!' Host Alex Trebek Announces 1st Round NHL Draft Pick ... In Surprise Video!!!
What is ... INCREDIBLE?!!?
How about this video of legendary "Jeopardy!" host Alex Trebek making a surprise video for the 2020 NHL Draft on Tuesday, announcing the Ottawa Senators' 1st-round pick?!
Yep, the 80-year-old Canadian quiz show legend -- who's battling stage 4 pancreatic cancer -- is also a HUGE hockey superfan. So, when the opportunity came to make a cameo for the 2020 Draft, Trebek accepted!

The Senators had the 3rd overall pick in the Draft -- and Alex set up the announcement from the "Jeopardy!" stage, with some help from the show's announcer Johnny Gilbert.
The Category: "The NHL"
The Clue: "With the 3rd pick in the 2020 NHL Draft the Ottawa Senators choose this player."
The Correct Response: "Who is Tim Stützle."
FYI, Stützle is an 18-year-old prodigy from Germany, who can play both center or wing.
Awesome moment-- hopefully, Stützle watches enough American TV to appreciate it!!!
