The NHL fan vote comes to a close tomorrow to be the final pieces to the NHL All Star game in Toronto. Players will finally get a sense on whether or not they can go to that planned vacation they have with their significant other and family or they will find out that they will be spending that week in snowy and cold Toronto, Canada.

We've never seen a player publicly show how bad they want to be at the All star weekend like we have seen with St. Louis goaltender, Jordan Binnington.

Jordan Binnington calls out Justin Bieber

Jordan Binnington calling out Justin Bieber again after failing in 2020 was not on our bingo card going into the New Year. In 2020, Binnington challenged Bieber to a 10 shot challenge for charity but it never came to fruition. Earlier this week, Jordan let him know that the offer still stands.

For the Bet yeah he should get picked, but for his play...

It would be awesome to see a showdown between Bieber and Binnington, especially with charity involved, but to say that the Canadian goaltender should be used as one of the fan votes because of his play is just a straight up lie.

The 30 year old has had a bang average season so far with the Blues averaging a .907 save percentage and a record of 14-11-1. The Blues sit 10th in the Western Conference, 2 points out of a wildcard spot. The Blues representative is Robert Thomas, who is having a great bounceback season with 43 points in 40 games.

Using Binnington as a fan vote while there are guys like Thatcher Demko, Jeremy Swayman, Adin Hill and Linus Ullmark not getting picked would be disrespectful to these goalies who are performing much better. If the NHL plans on bringing him without counting him as a vote and more of a "guest" then we are all for it! Besides who doesn't love good causes for charity!
