One of the biggest stars of NHL All-Star Weekend was Justin Bieber, who played at a party he hosted early in the week and even skated on the ice before Saturday’s 3-on-3 competition.
Together with fellow Canadians Tate McRae, Will Arnett, and Michael Bublé, Bieber was one of four celebrity captains. He participated in warm-ups and was outfitted with a microphone.
Although it’s been a minute, Bieber commented while skating, “It’s so fun, though.” “This is a dream.”
Bieber spoke with Elias Pettersson, snapped a picture with Connor McDavid, the winner of the skills competition and the current MVP, and Sergei Bobrovsky questioned him if he was really playing. That might be going too far.
No, only for warm-ups,” replied Bieber. “If not, I’ll get hurt.”
All-Star 3-on-3 MVP candidate Auston Matthews enjoyed having Bieber around.
Matthews remarked, “Everyone enjoyed it—he obviously really enjoyed it.” “Getting on the ice and having some fun with a few guys was a cool moment for him.” Sincerely, I think that was a lot of fun for everyone
During the game, Bieber nodded to Bublé, who had stated Thursday night during the player draft that he was high on mushrooms, by donning a mushroom cloak reminiscent of Super Mario Brothers behind the bench.
According to Matthews, players were making jokes about Jim Montgomery, the coach of the Boston Bruins, wearing the coat. Instead, it remained on Bieber.
“It was fantastic,” Matthews remarked. “There’s no doubt you could pick him out of a crowd fairly easily if you were up pretty high in the stands.
