When John Krasinski teased 'The Office' co-star Jenna Fischer at 2019 Stanley Cup Finals
In June 2019, NHL fans witnessed a playful exchange between former The Office co-stars John Krasinski and Jenna Fischer, who engaged in friendly banter during Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals.
Known for their iconic on-screen relationship as Jim Halpert and Pam Beesly, the two actors were playfully rooting for opposing teams throughout the series. However, it was Krasinski who stole the spotlight when he taunted Fischer by bringing her character's ex-fiance, actor David Denman who played Roy, as his companion for the event.
In a moment that delighted fans and captured the attention of the media, Krasinski took to Twitter to share a video of himself at the Stanley Cup Finals. He humorously addressed Fischer, saying:
"Jenna Fischer, I know we've been having our ups and downs recently. I just wanted to say I'm really sorry you're not here."
With a playful gesture, he motioned toward the seat next to him.
Denman played along with the joke, offering a nonchalant "Oh! Hey" before taking a sip of his beer. The light-hearted exchange between the two actors added a touch of comedy to the Stanley Cup Finals and left fans of The Office reminiscing about the characters they portrayed on screen.
Throughout the Stanley Cup Finals, Krasinski and Fischer openly supported opposing teams, with Krasinski passionately backing the Boston Bruins and Fischer cheering for the St. Louis Blues. Their rivalry had already garnered attention on social media, with fans playfully joining in the banter.
