The breakaway challenge between pop singer Justin Bieber and Blues goaltender Jordan Binnington is inching closer to fruition as Bieber has initiated another social media exchange with Binner, this time, showcasing his stickhandling skills.
"i got filthy mits it's not lookin good for you." jabbed the Biebs. But Binnington was having none of it, promptly firing back with a well-placed jab of his own. "Hands are looking smooth. Keep your head up, I'm poke checking you on shots 2,5 and 7."
The exchange took place on Instagram, but the videos are accessible through the Twitter link below.

The challenge issued by the Biebs has a lot of people buzzing, including Czech forward Tomas Hertl, who, prior to his season-ending injury, took part in the 2020 Honda NHL All-Star Game in St. Louis and hilariously donned a Justin Bieber mask during the skills competition when he attempted to deke out Binnington. It was such a well-timed gag. In case you missed it, the video is viewable here at NHL.com
The breakaway challenge between Binnington and Bieber does not yet have a date or time attached to it, but both parties are working toward setting a date. Should Bieber be able to sneak one past Binner, the Blues netminder will have to donate $10,000 to a charity of Bieber's choice.
