Hurricanes’ Kotkaniemi aims to continue hot streak in Edmonton In another clash of offensive talents, the surging Carolina Hurricanes get set to battle the Edmonton Oilers Wednesday, Dec. 6, at Rogers Place in Edmonton, Alberta. The action airs live on TNT. In what’s been yet another impressive season for the Carolina Hurricanes (9-6-0 as of Nov. 11), the team currently sits comfortably near the top of the Metropolitan Division with contributions coming from the likes of Sebastian Aho, Martin Necas and Teuvo Teravainen helping Carolina rank among the top teams in goal scoring. However, one player catching eyes around the league — and certainly proving his worth this season — is bonafide second-line center Jesperi Kotkaniemi. Coming off an impressive season that saw Kotkaniemi set career highs in goals (18), assists (25) and points (43), the Finnish native has carried that momentum into this season. In Kotkaniemi’s first 15 games, he managed to rack up six goals and seven assists for a total of 13 points — an impressive feat to start the season for the young star, as he sits as one of the team’s top five contributors. Facing the Hurricanes will be the offensive juggernaut Edmonton Oilers, led by none other than Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. While those two names ring synonymous with success, the start of the 2023-24 campaign has been quite the opposite in comparison to their opponents. Full name: Jesperi Kotkaniemi Birthdate: July 6, 2000 (23) Birthplace: Pori, Finland Height/weight: 6-2/201 pounds

Away from it all: Luxury getaway goes south in ‘Leave the World Behind’ A family’s stay at a luxurious vacation home is unexpectedly extended due to a mysterious apocalypse in the new thriller “Leave the World Behind,” premiering Friday, Dec. 8, on Netflix. Based on the bestselling 2020 novel of the same name by author Rumaan Alam, the adaptation stars Julia Roberts (“Ticket to Paradise,” 2022) and Ethan Hawke (“Moon Knight”) as married couple Amanda and Clay Sandford, whose family getaway to Long Island is steered far from the rest and relaxation they expected. After putting off a much-needed break from their busy day-to-day city life, Amanda tells Clay in the official trailer for the film, “I figured if I made the reservation and packed our bags, it would eliminate most of the reasons to say no.” Off they go to a sprawling home near the beach with their two children, teenager Archie (Charlie Evans, “Everything’s Gonna Be Okay”) and their youngest, Rose (Farrah Mackenzie, “United States of Al”). While Amanda and Clay watch on as their children enjoy the pool and they all begin to settle into their temporary home, the peace and quiet begins feeling eerie. The Julia Roberts in “Leave the World Behind”

cable and internet are mysteriously out, but the Sandfords try to make the most of it by pulling out games to pass the time. A knock at the door in the dark of night puts them face to face with two strangers in formal wear. Mahershala Ali (“Swan Song,” 2021) is G.H. Scott, the owner of the home, he explains to the bewildered couple blocking his doorway. This fateful introduction deepens the uneasiness that’s beginning to build, when Amanda says to G.H. like an accusation, “This is your house?” G.H., joined by his daughter Ruth (Myha’la, “Industry”), face down their guests until they are eventually let into their home. Widespread blackouts led the Scotts to flee New York City for their Long Island residence, wanting to wait out the outage away from the panic of the city. Relegated to the basement in-law suite by a forcefully skeptical Amanda, the divide between the two families intensifies. If Amanda is determined not to make any friends in the apocalypse, her efforts are matched only by gruff contractor Danny, portrayed by Kevin Bacon (“City On a Hill”). Holding his shotgun as a warning in the trailer, Danny sternly tells G.H., “I would do anything to protect my family. What you do is your business.” A woman desperately clings to the passenger side door as Clay accelerates away, lost in this unfamiliar beach town, leaving the Sandford and Scott families no choice but to rely on each other for the time being. All they know for certain is that a countrywide cyberattack has caused sweeping power outages along the East Coast. Confirmed with an unsettling “unrecognized emergency warning” blasting bright blue light from the beach home’s flat-screen TV, G.H.’s hunch that the seemingly unrelated disasters are connected grows.

David Hyde Pierce OF JULIA ON MAX Q: Why isn’t David Hyde Pierce back as Niles in the new version of “Frasier”?

A: The actor reportedly was approached about rejoining title star Kelsey Grammer in the Paramount+ revival, but he reportedly responded that he felt he had done all he could do with the character. However, that doesn’t mean Pierce isn’t doing any work at all. He’s been appearing as Paul Child, husband of legendary chef Julia Child, in the second season of Max’s comedy-drama series “Julia”; he also is performing Off-Broadway in the late composer Stephen Sondheim’s “Here We Are.” Pierce already was building a solid career for himself on stage and screen when his memorable portrayal of the persnickety Niles Crane on the original “Frasier” suddenly made him a household name. He had played a bookstore co-worker of Amy Irving’s character in “Crossing Delancey” (1988), and just before “Frasier” premiered in 1993, he was in “Sleepless in Seattle” with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan. While “Frasier” was in its original run, Pierce also was in the movies “Wolf” (1994), “Nixon” (1995) and “Down With Love” (2003). Over the course of “Frasier’s” first run, Pierce earned four Primetime Emmy Awards for his portrayal of Niles. He also has fared well with Broadway’s Tony Awards, winning for his acting in the musical “Curtains” in 2007, then receiving the ceremony’s Isabelle Stevenson Award for his philanthropic work in 2010. He also was nominated for performing in “Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike” (2013) and a revival of “Hello, Dolly!” (2017).

Jimmy Fallon OF THE TONIGHT SHOW STARRING JIMMY FALLON ON NBC

BY ADAM THOMLISON

Q: Jimmy Fallon loves to sing — has he ever been on Broadway?

Jimmy Fallon, best known as host of “The Tonight Show” and an alumnus of “Saturday Night Live,” has also had a pretty decent film career. It started in 2000, with a small but pivotal role in the smash-hit rock ‘n’ roll drama, “Almost Famous.”

Cameron Crowe (“Jerry Maguire,” 1996), premiered a Broadway adaptation of the film. His promotional tour involved being a guest on Fallon’s “Tonight Show,” and while he was there, he invited Fallon to reprise his film role in the stage version — a couple of times, just for fun. And much to the audience’s delight, Fallon agreed.

In late 2022, the film’s writer-director,

Alas, it never came to be.

A: No, but he came pretty darn close.

That could have a lot to do with the fact that the show was a bit of a flop, with the New York Times calling it a “mystifying muddle.” It ran for just a little over two months, which apparently was not enough time to get Fallon’s guest turn together. In fact, he barely even had time to see it. He reportedly attended a show on Jan. 6, just two days before it ended.

A: Eighties heartthrob Jami Gertz (“The Lost Boys,” 1987) is still taking roles here and there, but she’s not working too hard because she doesn’t have to. Jami Gertz is one of the richest women in America. Her fortune didn’t come from her acting, but rather from the investment businesses she and her husband Tony Ressler run, which include being part owners of the NBA’s Atlanta Hawks and baseball’s Milwaukee Brewers. Thanks to those operations, they’re actually billionaires. Despite all that, the “Twister” (1996) and “Sixteen Candles” (1984) star still finds time to dabble in Hollywood.

A Lasting Tribute

Most recently, she had a small role in the Amazon Prime feature comedy “I Want You Back” (2022). That role broke Gertz’s multi-year hiatus from the screen. Indeed, the last time she was working regularly as an actress was in 2014, when she had a lead role on the two-season ABC sitcom “The Neighbors.” That, too, came after several years of dabbling.

It seems that Gertz’s involvement in “Magic City” has less to do with her screen career than her business career — particularly her ownership of the Atlanta Hawks. “Atlanta is my adopted home and a place I’m looking forward to celebrating through this story,” she said in a news release.

What better way to ring in the holidays than with Barbara, Mark, Lori, Robert, Daymond and Kevin? The Sharks hope to share their holiday cheer with four new prospective entrepreneurs.

When a few social media comments get him into hot water, reclusive author Harrington (Paul Campbell) needs April (Lyndie Greenwood), his publicist, to work hard to spin damage control. In the process, she helps him rediscover the spirit of the holidays.

Illusionist duo Penn and Teller usually command the stage, but find themselves in the audience to watch as aspiring magicians try their best to impress. Featured magicians include Ramo and Alegria, Bryan Saint, Sion and Vilgot Michelin.

Clark Griswold (Chevy Chase) wants to have the perfect family Christmas. From decorating the house to getting the right tree, everything looks great until Cousin Eddie (Randy Quaid) and his family show up unplanned and his holiday bonus gets downsized.

A week before Christmas, real estate “closer” Lexie (Jana Kramer) must head back to her hometown to close a big deal. Once there, she must convince Coby (Adam Senn) to part ways with his family’s land, leading her to reconsider the life she left behind.

Multi-talented musicians: Rush bassist Geddy Lee goes fishing in adventurous special

Solution on page 5.

in focus “Reacher” (Prime Video — Dec. 15, Season Premiere) Based on “Bad Luck and Trouble,” the 11th book in Lee Child’s global best-selling series, Season 2 begins when veteran military police investigator Jack Reacher (Alan Ritchson) receives a coded message that the members of his former U.S. Army unit, the 110th MP Special Investigations, are being mysteriously and brutally murdered one by one. Pulled from his drifter lifestyle, Reacher reunites with three of his former teammates turned chosen family — Frances Neagley (Maria Sten), Karla Dixon (Serinda Swan) and David O’Donnell (Shaun Sipos) — to investigate.

Directed by Sam Dunn (“Rush: Beyond the Lighted Stage,” 2010) and written by Daniel Richler (“How Do They Do It?”), this four-part docuseries questions just how wide-ranging talent can be. “Geddy Lee Asks: Are Bass Players Human Too?” debuts Tuesday, Dec. 5, streaming on Paramount+. Vocalist, bassist and keyboard player for the Hall of Fame Canadian rock group Rush, Geddy Lee has long proved his talents on stage. But, after decades of performing, the musician is looking to prove that he — and other musicians like him — are far more multifaceted than fans and concert-goers may initially assume. Traveling to visit the homes of some renowned bass players – Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic, Metallica’s Rob Trujillo, Les Claypool (Primus) and Melissa Auf der Maur (Smashing Pumpkins) – Lee, according to Paramount, “digs into the stories that make these musicians stand out,” all the while testing out some new hobbies, as a trailer for the series shows Lee cooking with Novoselic, surfing with Trujillo, hiking with Auf Der Maur and fishing with Claypool.

The Times

Geddy Lee to host “Geddy Lee Asks: Are Bass Players Human Too?”

Of course, it’s not all exploration. During each visit, Lee also spends some time making music with his guests. “The idea for this show was born out of interviews I did for my first book, ‘The Big, Beautiful Book of Bass,’” Lee said. “I was struck that these accomplished musicians also lived incredibly interesting, multifaceted lives offstage. Who knew bass players were so effin’ human?” Even more fitting, the series will be released alongside Lee’s recently debuted memoir, “My Effin’ Life,” which was released Nov. 14.
