Viral Now: Wife Pranks Husband To Get Chips, His Reaction Wins Hearts
A wife's snack prank on her husband is taking social media by storm. Rather than her action, it is her husband's response that has got many people talking. The now-viral video was posted by Sheena Melwani. The clip begins with her seated on a couch and calling up her husband on his phone. The ringtone rings from another room, and we hear him off-camera saying that he's pausing whatever they were watching. As he gets up to take the call, Sheena mischievously laughs at the camera.

"When you lose, you lose. You take it like a champ." Sheena continues grinning. Still in the other room, her husband asks her, What chips do you want? How many do you want? I'll go to the grocery store barefoot, even. This is the smartest thing you've ever come up with. This is amazing. I'm cooking lunch and dinner for tomorrow!" Sheena laughs at his words.

"He was so impressed, he's going to be using that trick on the kids all the time now." "OMG I wasn't expecting his response to be even better." "Love a man who gives credit where credit is due!!" "The best possible response. He took it like a champ." "Love how he embraces his defeat." "'I'll go to the grocery store barefoot even.'- Gets me." "His reaction was awesome!! Love the positivity and lightheartedness." "If nobody is going to comment on how he has the original theme from Hockey Night in Canada as a ringtone. That is an absolute elbows-up win."

Mitch Marner prepares to leave Toronto with list of preferred NHL teams: Report
Mitch Marner prepares to leave Toronto with list of preferred NHL teams: Report (Image Source: Getty Images) NHL star Mitch Marner is in the spotlight again. After the Toronto Maple Leafs fell short in the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs, Mitch Marner may be ready for a big change. According to multiple reports, he is now looking at new options and has made a list of eight NHL teams where he might want to play next. Mitch Marner narrows his options for next NHL team On Friday, May 31, 2025, hockey insider David Pagnotta reported that Mitch Marner has created a list of eight teams he is open to joining through free agency. This news was first shared by The Fourth Period. Marner is under contract with the Toronto Maple Leafs, but after another early playoff exit, his future with the team is uncertain. According to the report, Marner might not want to stay in Canada. He could be planning to leave the country completely, ruling out all seven Canadian NHL teams. This shows a big shift in his thinking, especially since he has played in Toronto for his entire career. Two teams already named on his list are the Los Angeles Kings and the Vegas Golden Knights. Both teams play in the Western Conference and have strong playoff potential. Los Angeles fans were especially excited after hearing the news. Their team was also knocked out early in the 2025 postseason and could use a player like Marner. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trade Bitcoin & Ethereum – No Wallet Needed! IC Markets Start Now Undo Also Read: NHL Rumor: Mitch Marner almost left Toronto as Maple Leafs secretly held talks with Vegas Insiders suggest Mitch Marner looking forward more possible teams and reasons behind the move Well-known hockey reporter Elliotte Friedman shared more insight during his appearance on Hockey Night in Canada on May 30, 2025. He suggested the Anaheim Ducks might also be on Marner's radar. While they are a younger team, they could be an attractive long-term option for the 27-year-old forward. Another possible team mentioned is the Florida Panthers. They have had deep playoff runs recently and could be seen as rivals to the Maple Leafs. Some believe Marner might prefer to join a strong U.S.-based team instead of facing them every postseason. Pagnotta also said the final decision could come soon. Fans and experts now wait to see where the talented winger will go next. Marner has not made any public comments yet, and the Leafs' front office has also stayed quiet. The story is still developing, but one thing is clear — Mitch Marner may soon leave Toronto after years of ups and downs with the Maple Leafs.

Are the Chicago Blackhawks closing in on a new coach? What to know about Jeff Blashill.
Former Detroit Red Wings head coach Jeff Blashill has emerged as a top contender for the Chicago Blackhawks, according to reports. The buzz since the weekend has been that Blashill's hiring looked like a certainty, but Sportsnet journalist and 'Hockey Night in Canada' analyst Elliotte Friedman pushed back on that notion. 'I heard on Friday morning that he was in as the head coach of Chicago – he was going to be the guy,' he said on his '32 Thoughts' podcast Monday. However, 'I had a couple people tell me it's too soon. That would be premature. … There was a job interview he had somewhere else, but it got canceled, that's why it began to spread like wildfire that he was going to Chicago.' Still, Friedman called Blashill a 'very serious contender.' Blashill has a wide-ranging background. He has been a head coach and assistant with the Central Collegiate Hockey Association, United States Hockey League, American Hockey League, USA Hockey and National Hockey League. He coached the Red Wings for seven seasons from 2015-2022. And for the past three seasons, he was an assistant on Jon Cooper's staff with the Tampa Bay Lightning. Another known contender for the Hawks is Anders Sörensen, the current interim head coach. But however the job search turns out, Sörensen likely will remain with the organization in some capacity. Chicago Blackhawks draw the No. 3 pick in the NHL draft lottery — but whom to select?General manager Kyle Davidson said of Sörensen after the season in April, 'We hold great value in Anders. If the coaching search doesn't go in his favor, he's going to be part of our organization. We want him as part of the organization, no matter what. … 'We love Anders. He's been part of the organization for some time, he's a great hockey mind, he's a great person and those are the type of people we want in our organization.' Sörensen was promoted from Rockford IceHogs head coach to interim coach of the Hawks when the team fired Luke Richardson on Dec. 5. The Hawks finished 25-46-11 for the NHL's second-worst record.
