Team Matthews has a special guest on the ice with them for today's All-Star Game warmups
The NHL's All-Star Game is about to get under way and, as is usually the case before any game, the players were out in full force, taking warmups before the game. They weren't alone, however, as Team Matthews celebrity co-captain Justin Bieber was also out on the ice with the NHL All-Stars.
Not only does Bieber appear to skate pretty well, he actually appears to have a decent shot as well. I suppose it's a good thing that Jordan Binnington didn't make the All-Star roster, as he might have actually lost his bet against Bieber. For those who don't recall, Binnington bet Bieber that if he could score 1 goal against him in 10 shots, he'd donate $10,000 to a charity of his choosing. Here's Bieber ripping one into the net during warmups:
Of course, the players from all of the teams were thrilled to have the chance to meet Bieber during warmups and snag some photo ops as well:
As is the routine in Toronto, Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner were the last two players on the ice. However, Bieber also remained out with the pair of hometown heroes for one last lap and some extra passing:
The first two teams that will meet this afternoon are Team MacKinnon and Team McDavid, with the second game featuring Team Matthews vs. Team Hughes. The winners of the two games will meet one another in the finals for the $1M prize.
