“I’m so excited to be back here again this year,” Jacob said while presenting The Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy to Craig Anderson of the Ottawa Senators.

“The Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy is given to a player who shows great perseverance,” Jacob went on. “Speaking about perseverance, I’m a Vancouver Canucks fan. We know all about perseverance. For me it’s been a long 10 years. I’m sorry, the Canucks are my favorite team. They made me say that.”

Jacob was joined by host Joe Manganiello, who snapped a pic with the massive Stanley Cup before it was presented to this year’s winners, the Pittsburgh Penguins.
