Crosby will only endorse products if he believes in it. Curse or not, there are a handfull of instances where cover boy isnt affected. The worst case must be Dion Phanuef and Eric Staal. 20cent was hit with..well..battery and assualt HAHA, but his on ice performance hasnt really been affected

The cooke hit is the same as richards just that the player on the other side involved was the argument

I don't know why Iginla would be included. He was the cover of Nhl 2003 or something and he had 73pts that year.. the next year, he had 67 then 98 pts then 89 respectively.

And wasn't Ovechkin the cover of 2007. His lone 50less goal is 2006-2007 season where they had Vinny as the cover.

Who really believes in the game cover curse lol

raygunpk 03-09-2010 12:33 PM

the games are made before the season begins. kane is on the cover of 2010, in the 09-10 season.

but yeah it's just superstition, and many pro athletes are sooo superstitious, especially goalies. even I put on my gear in the same order, or i gotta do it all over again.

AzNightmare 03-09-2010 01:06 PM

I thought the EA cover curse was only for their football games.... I guess not?

punkwax 03-09-2010 01:38 PM

Big game tonight. Hopefully the Canucks can open the scoring and maintain the lead.

Oh yes, sorry.

I personally have not heard of this cover superstition that's why I'm puzzled lol..

I know of other sports but that's usually during the all star weekend. i.e. Home Run Derby... 3 Point shootout but not a cover lol...If it was me, I'd be hella stoked to be in the cover of a game.

the curse is mainly a madden curse but people are still parinoid with the nhl

MG1 03-09-2010 05:13 PM

Kyle Cumiskey of the Avalanche, another NHL'er from BC (Abbotsford).

MG1 03-09-2010 05:15 PM

That was fast..........

Cumiskey gets an assist.

TRD Rs200 03-09-2010 05:15 PM

BOOOOOOOOOOO

TRD Rs200 03-09-2010 05:16 PM

WTF IS THIS SHIT

MG1 03-09-2010 05:16 PM

Uh oh............. Luongo at it again.

Poor guy

MG1 03-09-2010 05:17 PM

RIPPER FIGHT...... not.

murd0c 03-09-2010 05:17 PM

OK WTF, had Lu been hanging out with Cloutier?

mako 03-09-2010 05:18 PM

wtf

DsZ24 03-09-2010 05:19 PM

Time for the usual canucks comeback

mako 03-09-2010 05:22 PM

RAYMOND!!! nooooo

MG1 03-09-2010 05:24 PM

Comeback would be great, but if the opposing goalie is hot, we're done for. I hope it's not one of those Luongo lets in 5 goals kind of games.

DsZ24 03-09-2010 05:26 PM

Vinny should put the regular lines back together

TRD Rs200 03-09-2010 05:32 PM

shit.....

Greenstoner 03-09-2010 05:32 PM
