A while ago, I extolled the virtues of NHL 09. It’s an awesome game, continuing a history of awesome hockey games on the EA platform. I also mentioned that the historically awesome EA NHL games always seem to come when the Chicago Blackhawks are good. That’s not why we came, however.
As many people do, I create myself as a player, but what most people don’t do is randomly assign them to a team. Well, I was created and ended up with the Flames. I have dilligently put in my time with Calgary for 2 Be A Pro seasons, and then, in the offseason, I got traded. What? It’s by far the most bizarre thing that’s happened to me in a video game, except that one time on an NCAA basketball game Purdue was booted from the Big Ten.
But I digress. What did I do to you, Calgary? Why did you send me off to Phoenix? And for Keith Yandle? That’s all I’m worth to you, is Keith Yandle? And are you trying to make me feel bad that I don’t get to live in Phoenix in real life, and am instead subjected to the mercy of these cruel Minnesota winters, pretending to be in Phoenix. *sigh*
At least golfers who wear pink shirts will be my fans.
