Although not as much as they did without the cocoon coat.
It was a Marni Fuzzy Wuzzy brushed polka dot puffer jacket in Tulip. Retail price: $4,600.
It was surprising, especially with Bieber standing next to Boston Bruins coach Jim Montgomery, who was casually dressed in a light blue sweater while coaching Team Matthews.
“We loved it,” Matthew said. “We were saying that ‘Monty’ should leave it for the second period. I don’t know if it happened or not. “I don’t know, if you were up in the stands there was no doubt you could pick him out of the crowd pretty easily.”
Unfortunately, Montgomery failed to make a fashion statement.
“I love the coat,” he said. “I wanted to use it. I have no looks, so I might as well make noise with my clothes.”
But Montgomery got to talk music with Bieber.
“On the bench, I was picking his brain, like, ‘What do you listen to when you relax at home?’” he said. “He said that right now he himself is listening to a new band from Austin, Texas. He had never heard of them. I wrote them down, so I’m going to check them out.”
Towards 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 Matthews a 6-3 lead with 1:51 left, 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 left, Montgomery put his arm around Bieber. At that time, everyone was a “believer.”
“We knew we had done it,” Montgomery said. “It was great to be around him. He was very interested in it and had real excitement.”
Those were his only intentions.
“I was excited,” Marner said. “He wanted to win. Yeah, man, it was awesome having him behind the bench.”
