Justin Bieber Takes No-Bucket Warm-Ups And Wears The Most Absurd Jacket You've Ever Seen At NHL All-Star Game

The NHL All-Star Game was held in Toronto this weekend, and while I'd say the star of the show was either Skills Competition champion Connor McDavid or Mr. Mushroom himself, Michael Bublé, the league went all in on one Justin Bieber.

The popstar was a big part of the weekend, having designed the jerseys for this year's iteration of the All-Star (which could be the last for a couple of years).

Bieber also served as one of the celebrity captains along with Bublé, comedian Will Arnett, and singer Tate McCrae.

However, Bieber was the only one of those captains who was apparently given carte blanche to do whatever he pleased at Scotiabank Arena.

Take for instance Bieber being the only captain to throw on a set of pads and take warm-ups with his team, Team Matthews led by Toronto Maple Leafs star Auston Matthews.

Not going to lie: Biebs is a halfway decent skater. He'd probably be a top 5 player on any beer league team you throw him on. 

Also, mad respect for taking warm-ups sans bucket. 

Unfortunately for Bieber, he didn't get a ton of time to fire some clappers at the All-Star netminders because he got stuck taking photos with the All-Stars.

While his warm-up performance was commendable, we've got to address the big, polka-dotted elephant in the room: what the hell is up with this jacket?!

I know it gets cold in Toronto and that thing looks incredibly warm, but that wasn't a weather-driven fashion choice. That's what Bieber wore to stand on the bench and pretend to coach Team Matthews.

And speaking of Team Matthews — much to the enjoyment of the home crowd — it won the whole thing, taking home a million-dollar prize that will be split between the players.

This was a slightly revised NHL All-Star Game weekend, what with the fantasy draft element and a reworked skills competition, and I think it worked well.

Leafs fans will be happy considering the home team won the weekend.

Drink it in, Leafs fans. That could be the biggest championship you see for a few more decades.
