Not as much as they did out of the cocoon coat, though.

It was a Marni Fuzzy Wuzzy Brushed Dot Padded Jacket in Tulip. Retail price: $4,600.

It was striking, especially with Bieber standing next to Boston Bruins coach Jim Montgomery, who went casual in a light blue sweater while coaching Team Matthews.

“We were loving it,” Matthew said. “We were saying ‘Monty’ should chuck it on for the second period. I don’t know if it happened or not. I don’t know, if you were pretty high in the stands, there was no doubt you could pick him out of the crowd pretty easily.”

Unfortunately, Montgomery didn’t get to make a fashion statement.

“I love the coat,” he said. “I wanted to wear it. I have no look, so I might as well be loud with my clothing.”

But Montgomery did get to talk music with Bieber.

“On the bench, I was picking his brain on, like, ‘What do you listen to when you’re just relaxing at home?’” he said. “He said right now, he’s listening to some new band from Austin, Texas. I’d never heard of them. I wrote them down, though, so I’m going to check them out.”

Toward the end of the final, Bieber had one foot propped up on the bench, watching the action intently. When Detroit Red Wings forward Alex DeBrincat scored to give Team Matthews a 6-3 lead with 1:51 to go, he stood on top of the bench with his hands in the air.

Finally, after New York Islanders forward Mathew Barzal scored to give them a 7-4 lead with 1:06 to go, Montgomery put his arm around Bieber. At that point, they were all ‘Beliebers’.

“We knew we clinched it,” Montgomery said. “It was great being around him. He was so into it, and he had real emotion.”

Those were his only intentions.

“He was fired up,” Marner said. “He wanted to win. Yeah, man, he was awesome to have behind the bench.”
