Will the pop star accept?

National Hockey League fans can continue to send in their votes to send their favorite players to the NHL All-Star game, that will be played on February 4 at Scotiabank Arena in downtown Toronto.
And for Ontario native goaltender Jordan Binnington of the St. Louis Blues, not only does he want to be a participant, but he'd also love to go one-on-one with fellow Ontario native and pop superstar Justin Bieber, a noted fan of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
How Binnington would like to go about it would be 10 shootout attempts, and if Bieber were to score, the Blues goaltender would dye his hair blonde.
"It's been a few years, so I just thought you've got to shoot your shot," Binnington said. "It would be nice to be an All-Star, but it's tough with the voting situation, so I'm giving myself any chance I can have there, just throwing it out and see what happens."
"That would be cool. This one stands out, right, in Toronto," Binnington said. "It would be a lot of fun."
This isn't the first time that the fiery Blues goalie has challenged Bieber, as he also did so prior to the 2020 NHL All-Star Game that was held at Enterprise Center in St. Louis.
"Just trying to get there," Binnington said. "Throwing a little bone out there for people to see something if it goes down.
"It's on. I know he's been skating [and] training for the event, so we'll see what comes of it."
Meanwhile, Binnington's teammate Jake Neighbours stated his belief that there's no way that Bieber would be able to score if this actually went down.
"I don't think [Bieber would] score ... at all," Neighbours said. "I'd give him 20 attempts. Well, actually I don't know, I've never seen [Bieber] play.
"I think he'd go 100 percent, 'Binner' would. It would be impressive if Bieber scored on him, that's for sure, yeah. ... 'Binner' is pretty stone cold. I can barely score on him."
