Justin Bieber's appearance on "The Talk" Wednesday took a surprise turn when his hockey idol Wayne Gretzky popped in for a little game of air hockey.

Initially, co-host Holly Robinson Peete took on the 'Justin Bieber: Never Say Never' star. When the score was tied 1-1, she recruited a special guest to step in for her: Gretzky. Justin, who is also Canadian, was genuinely stunned.

The two played a tough game, each scoring on one another, and Justin's fans in the audience shouted "Bieber! Bieber!"

Gretzky was accompanied by his young daughter, Emma, and after their fun-filled match presented Justin with a special, autographed hockey jersey.

Following their air hockey one-on-one and Gretzky's exit, Justin asked the ladies of 'The Talk,' "Why'd you do that? You made me look like a groupie or something." He then added, "I'm a huge fan and it was really great to meet him."
