Justin Bieber’s Mother’s Day post couldn’t have come at a worse time for the Toronto Maple Leafs.
On Sunday, Bieber posted a real sweet picture for Mother’s Day on Instagram of him and his mother — Pattie Mallette — standing next to and touching the Stanley Cup. Bieber, a noted Maple Leafs super fan, used the short message to talk about his favorite team, who are currently embroiled in a slugfest of a first round playoff matchup with the Tampa Bay Lightning.
“Happy Mother’s Day mom, we’re gonna bring back lord Stanley’s Cup to Toronto this year and it will be beautiful,” the message read.
Pretty sweet, right?

Unfortunately for Bieber, and the Maple Leafs, Toronto took an absolute 7-3 beating from Tampa Bay in Game 4 just hours after the pop star posted this. Now, the series is tied 2-2 headed back to Toronto in a best-of-three to determine who moves on to the next round.
While the post is a sweet one from Bieber, that’s still a big old yikes right there!
