Last night, Jeopardy Host Alex Trebek hinted at his retirement while on 'OBJECTified' with Harvey Levin.
Why does this have anything to do with the LA Kings?
Well, can you guess who Trebek recommended to take over for him as Jeopardy host?

Can you say, "Who is Alex Faust?"

Faust isn't upset about waking up to being featured on TMZ ...

I guess there are worse ways to randomly see your name show up on TMZ! 🤷🏻‍♂️

I’m flattered by Mr. Trebek’s kind words, and delighted to hear he’s a big @LAKings fan! 👑

1) That is amazing, Alex! 2) It would make the "obscure hockey player hometowns" category I've joked about wanting on "Jeopardy" for years slightly more possible.

... if that happens, then maybe we'll let Jeopardy borrow him.
