In 2013, Elisha Cuthbert, the actress and wife of Maple Leafs defenseman Dion Phaneuf, was sitting behind the glass during a game between the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Ottawa Senators.

During the game, James Reimer, the Maple Leafs' goaltender at the time, allowed a goal that many fans and commentators thought he should have saved. After the goal, the camera panned to Cuthbert, who appeared to give a frustrated and disappointed look towards Reimer's wife, who was sitting nearby. This "death stare" as it was dubbed, caused controversy and speculation among fans and media.

However, it's important to note that Cuthbert later clarified on Twitter that her facial expression was not directed towards Reimer's wife but rather towards a friend sitting next to her. She also apologized for any misunderstandings her expression might have caused.
