Justin Trudeau Made A Sports Bet With Joe Biden And People Want It To Involve Trump - HuffPost

President Joe Biden and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau engaged in some lighthearted sporting banter over the Stanley Cup Final.

Trudeau, a die-hard fan of the Montreal Canadiens, suggested making his side’s best-of-seven playoffs against the Tampa Bay Lightning a little bit more interesting with this tweet for Biden:

Two of the best teams in the NHL are facing off right now… how about a friendly wager, @POTUS? #GoHabsGo 🇨🇦🇺🇸 #StanleyCup

— Justin Trudeau (@JustinTrudeau) June 29, 2021

Biden, or whoever was running the official @POTUS account at the time, responded:

You’re on pal. #GoBolts https://t.co/jOhA7IB2bE

— President Biden (@POTUS) June 29, 2021

Former President Barack Obama twice had to give cases of beer to then-Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper after losing similar hockey wagers while in office.

Biden’s prospects are already looking better than those of his predecessor, though. The Lightning won the first game 5-1. The second game of the series is on Wednesday.

It’s not clear what the two will bet.

But Twitter users had some ideas, some of which involved former President Donald Trump:

If Canada wins, we have to adopt their healthcare system. 🥶

Thanks Joe. The former guy would have told us how no one knows hockey like him.

If Montreal wins the US will send you Trump

If Tampa Bay wins, Canada gets Trump.

@JustinTrudeau

Canada wins and the US adopts Canada’s health system

America wins and Canada opens the border back up, like, even past the “open” of pre-COVID. Like 70s Vietnam-era open.

Let’s make this fun

If the Habs win, Canada gets Hawaii. If the Bolts win, we'll take Bieber back.

Its nice to see a friendly wager over sports being made by the leader of the United States and Canada. This has been missed the past 4 years.

Fun, compassion, and leadership is back in the White House

If you lose does that mean Canada gives us universal healthcare? https://t.co/4jWeLadWop

For a moment I had a flashback to 2020 and thought, that guy has no knowledge of sports, especially hockey! Then I remembered no, Uncle Joe is POTUS now and he knows. He knows.
