In Photos: Justin Bieber shares behind the scenes pics from his local hockey pickup game

Justin Bieber shared behind-the-scenes snapshots from a local hockey pickup game on his Instagram account on Friday. Bieber was wearing a jersey that featured the name "South Bay Bullies," and reportedly, the game was played in Los Angeles. Denver-based photographer Rory Kramer was tagged by the "Never Say Never" hitmaker and apparently clicked Bieber's pictures.

In the photos, the pop star can be seen pretty exhausted after the hockey contest. He was so exhausted that he took out his jersey to cool himself down, while the other hockey gear for protection was still on. He sat on a bench to find a moment of relief.

Justin Bieber's Instagram post also got a comment from Spotify. The streaming service posted:

"Justin and I both love Billie, we have so much in common," showing their shared love for Billie Eilish.

But Spotify's comment gave birth to speculation as more fans delved into the idea behind the comment. Billie Eilish, an American singer-songwriter, is popular among the new generation of teens. Some fans questioned things like "Billie's song?"

However, the 2019 song "Bad Guy" had both artists on it.

Justin Bieber's local pickup game move draws praise from Maple Leafs forward Auston Matthews

Justin Bieber previously posted some photos and videos from the same local hockey pickup game on Instagram, in which he displayed his ice hockey skills. Bieber's Instagram post featured him skating from one end of the rink to the other. He also pulled off a clever move against a defenseman and netted a goal.

The game took place at the Toyota Sports Performance Center, where the Los Angeles Kings practice, according to TheHockeyNews. The Kings' logo and retired player banners can be seen in the background.

Toronto Maple Leafs star Auston Matthews commented "Filth" on the post and added emojis to applaud Bieber's skillful play.

Bieber hails from Stratford, Ontario, and has been a Maple Leafs fan his whole life. He has maintained a close bond with Leafs superstar Matthews since the team drafted him in 2016.

Earlier in February, Bieber was a participant in the NHL All-Star Games, although he was not on the ice with the team. Bieber and Matthews co-captained "Team Matthews," which won the exhibition game at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto. They beat three teams led by other Canadian celebrities and NHL captains.
