The NHL All-Star Game took place in Toronto this weekend, and it was a star-studded event. The Skills Competition was dominated by Connor McDavid, who emerged as the champion. But the real showstopper was none other than Justin Bieber himself. The popstar not only designed the jerseys for this year’s All-Star Game, but he also served as one of the celebrity captains, alongside Michael Bublé, Will Arnett, and Tate McCrae.
However, it was Bieber who stole the spotlight. He was given the freedom to do whatever he wanted at Scotiabank Arena. In a surprising move, Bieber even joined Team Matthews, led by Toronto Maple Leafs’ Auston Matthews, for warm-ups. And let me tell you, he can skate! Bieber’s skills on the ice would make him a top player in any beer league.
But let’s talk about his fashion choices. While it was freezing in Toronto, Bieber’s jacket raised some eyebrows. It was polka-dotted and definitely made a statement. He wore it while standing on the bench and pretending to coach Team Matthews. It certainly caught everyone’s attention.
Speaking of Team Matthews, they were the ultimate winners of the weekend. The home crowd couldn’t be happier as their team took home the million-dollar prize, which will be split among the players. This NHL All-Star Game was different from previous years, with a fantasy draft and a revamped skills competition. And it was a success.
For Leafs fans, this victory means a lot. It might be the biggest championship they witness for years to come. So, savor the moment, Leafs fans. This weekend belonged to you.
