It’s always fun to learn more about the NHL’s biggest stars. Some facts are pretty entertaining and reveal the superstitions of the game (Joe Nieuwendyk reportedly ate the same meal before each game consisting of two pieces of toast with peanut butter) while others reveal more about a player’s personality. For instance, Tyler Seguin is a big fan of Justin Bieber. Seriously.
In a recent interview, Seguin didn’t just admit he likes the Biebs. He admitted he’s a full on Belieber.
Via Sports Day:
On whether or not he’ll be at the Justin Bieber concert in Dallas:
Seguin: I am. I’ll be there. (Have you met him?) I have not met the Biebs.On his level of fandom:
Seguin: I don’t know if I could name the songs, but I probably definitely sing along to it, though. When he’s at the concert, I don’t think there will be a song that I won’t be able to sing. I am a Belieber. His songs are catchy, I don’t know what to tell you. He’s changed, right? He’s got tattoos! And he’s Canadian, he’s from Ontario, he likes hockey. I feel like we’d be Facebook friends, you know?
You just never know what you’re going to learn from a hockey player.
