It’s 7 days where you get to experience a fun game before they completely destroy it with a patch.

Nice; $3.49 more than I was expecting!

I don't think Blaster would be very happy if the Canucks left town and won the Stanley Cup the first year in a new city.

I was really hoping for a PC version this year. My kids pretty much monopolize the xbox now...

The curse LIVES! Sort of. Luke Hughes injured. Out 6-8 weeks.

We had a Strat-o-Matic League in the 80s, and I successfully traded to have all six Sutter brothers on my team.

Also interesting to note. Joe Thornton was originally supposed to be on the NHL 2004 cover, but after getting in a fight in Buddy Bob's in ST. Thomas he was removed.

Should have had Thorton's and Burns' beards on the cover one year. That might have made inroads for hockey in redneckville.
