    EA Sports NHL 10 Simulation Predicts Stanley Cup Champions in 2010

    Read the full press release, right here.

    "A simulation run by EA SPORTS™ NHL® 10 predicts that cover boy Patrick Kane will fall just short of claiming the Stanley Cup as the Pittsburgh Penguins repeat as Cup champions. Led by an outstanding performance by Conn Smythe Winner, Marc-Andre Fleury, the Penguins were able to withstand a relentless offensive assault by the young Chicago forwards. Hart Memorial Trophy winner Sidney Crosby and the Penguins take home the Stanley Cup for the second time in as many years with a 4 games to 2 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks."

Besides I'd like to know what sim program they were using because anytime I sim a season columbus always wins the cup vs. tampa bay or something equally ridculous
    Pittsburgh - 2009 City of Champions! YES WE DID!

      I refuse to believe that's what they came up with on their first attempt. They probably did it several times before they got a simulation they didn't feel embarrassed releasing.

      Can you imagine a press release that read: "EA Sports NHL10 simmed the 2009-10 season and the Columbus Blue Jackets are your Stanley Cup champions, defeating the New York Islanders in a tough six-game series. Columbus ousted the juggernaut Los Angeles Kings in the Western Conference finals, while the Islanders advanced to the finals by edging the Tampa Bay Lightning in the Eastern Conference finals.''

      Yeah, that would be good for new sales.
      It's on me. I shook his hand too hard. It was a hard ... kind of a slap-shake.

      "What? You can't challenge a scoring play?''

        I'm liking the Hurricanes winning the President's Trophy. Hopefully that isn't too far fetched for this year. I like how we stack up for 2009-10.

                Not bad predictions but also pretty sickening they picked the Pens to repeat. I also liked that this found its way to the NHL.com homepage.

                    Shark, 'Hawks, or Redwings are my guess.
