EA Sports Predicts Stanley Cup Winner

With the magic of Stanley Cup [http://games.easports.com/nhl09/].

EA Sports Chicago Blackhawks [http://sports.espn.go.com/videogames/news/story?id=4066073].

"Boston, led by shutdown defenseman Zdeno Chara, outmuscled the Blackhawks and received timely scoring from Conn Smythe Trophy winner Phil Kessel to capture its sixth Stanley Cup, and first since 1972," EA Sports said. "Kessel, playing on the Bruins top line with playoff leading scorer Marc Savard, delivered two overtime game-winners during the Finals. He finished with 14 goals in the playoffs, including five in the Finals."

The real-life Bruins have won the Cup five times, but the last time they hoisted Lord Stanley's silverware was all the way back in 1972. And while the Detroit Red Wings [http://maddennfl.easports.com/home.action] who came out on top.

This is funny.

 

[Random Argument Man]

Pfff, I may have loss my faith in the Canadiens but I doubt this scenario.

You can mock me if it does happens.

 

[PedroSteckecilo]

I don't know if I really care that much but I'm gonna put in with...

Go Canucks!

Yes I'm from Calgary, but the playoffs make this city stupid as hell and Vancouver is a nicer place anyway.

 

[vultureX21]

I have Calgary winning it all, playing Washington in the finals.

 

[Valiance]

I get the feeling Detroit could win it.

 

[puggs]

Red Wings FTW

i just want carolina to win again, but thats not going to happen.

 

[ssgt splatter]

really? oh here we go. First X-Play uses Madden to predict the superbowl now this? OI.

 

[Aptspire]

meh, I'm still rooting for Montreal's Canadiens
Go Habs Go!

 

[thisguyfromthere]

I don't follow hockey, so all I can really do is chuckle at EA. Faith in a game's simulation engine is nice, but this seems a bit too confident.

Actually, quite a bit too confident.

Actually, it's like throwing yourself off of a bridge and knowing you'll survive because you believe you'll withstand the sharp rocks sitting in the middle of the water.

EA Sports. When will you learn?

Viva Le Canadiens!

Seriously tho, the Bruins, winning a cup? Not likely!

Your captain is a complete loser! Choose a real team.

Carolina! HA!

 

[CeeJay]

You can get 6/1 on Boston.... might be worth a tenner....

 

[MarreckSteel]

Considering Boston has a team that is very, very solid, I think they have a really good chance this year. Seeing as a good amount of teams in New England are doing so well (Bruins with this season. The Red Sox the past couple years. The Patriots in the early 200's and now the Celtics) I have a feeling this little Northern hot streak has a good chance of going on for a couple more years. We just have to add the Bruins to the list of championship winners and things will all fall into place.

 

[SilentHunter7]

Let's Go Pittsburgh! Now that they got rid of that bum Therrien, I'd like to see them get the cup.

Their series against the Flyers should be real nice. There's not a whole lot of love between those two teams.
