That’s a lot of hard work to squeeze in a Pee Wee’s Big Adventure reference.

A-do-be!

That’s actually kind of impressive. If they actually had a stat for flusterability, headcraziness, or mental weakness, they may have gotten last year’s cup right.

…Wait, is that what the “Discipline” stat is for?

No point in playing the season then. Did the simulation predict how big the Vancouver riot will be this year? And once it got to the playoffs did it simulate Luongo letting in pucks or beach balls? Looooooooooo!

Which of those other predictions is so far-fetched? I don’t see Florida being the absolute worst team but it very well could happen with no Vokoun in net. All of the other predictions seem reasonable enough

I am surprised EA could not have simulated Luongo choking in Game 7.

That is if Crosby’s brains aren’t leaking out his ears… 9 months and still not ok.. As a Pens fan I’m worried… Thankfully Geno looks like a bad bad man since his knee surgery…Go Pens!!!
