Also, I didn’t attack you or your joke, just made a comment of my own, so is it just me taking it seriously or you being defensive?

I guess I’m pulling for Rinne, seeing as (correct me if I’m wrong) the last goaltender on the cover of NHL was John Vanbiesbrouck in 1997. That’s quite a lapse for the position.

I mean I suppose it would/could make you more visible to other sponsors, but is EA sending these guys any cash?

Just glad Malkin won’t be on there. People may have mistaken it for a first person Chernobyl disaster game. (He’s ugly.)

I was merely defending one of my favorite players and engaging in some friendly banter. No bitterness here bc flyers won fair and square just like the pens did in 08 and 09. Stop trying to make it more then what it is because you dont have a witty comeback.

To celebrate giroux will tour with nickelback till they do the NHL award show.

Shouldn’t it really be Flyers/Preds fans this time? Anyone got something nasty to say about Pekka Rinne?

Lindros in 99…pronger in 2000, even super mario in 2002. dany heatley was supposed to be on it in 04 but then he killed his team mate so he got pulled off, phaneuf sucks now since his cover. dont get me started on the madden one hillis, vince young, polamalu, shaun alexander, culpepper, mike vick…. i’m glad Malkin’s not on it.

Tell me does giroux have any of those? Well at least he has the chance to win the cover of a video game is something I guess.
