the finals of the cover athlete voting is down to brodeur or bobrovsky.

anyways, nhl 14 is coming in 3 or 4 months. it wont be out for the next gen systems, but they claim they are fixing many of the issues that plague nhl 13. anyone have any suggestions they would like to see?

What a joke. Datsyuk deserved the cover hands down. Neither of these goalies even made it to the playoffs, and Broduer's save percentage was .901, not bueno. Bobrovsky is the only one who deserves it out of the two, but Datsyuk should've won.

i dont think making the playoffs should be a requirement for making the cover of a video game. There are some good players that just happen to have the bad luck of being on a shitty team. Nor would i have issue if Broduer made it. He is one of the top goalies to ever play and is getting to retirement (should have retired already). Bob is the one that confuses me. He had a great few months sucking the last couple years. I dont think he deserves to be on a cover.

but i have to ask, why are you so adamant about Datsyuk being on the cover?

Probably because Brodeur and Bobrovsky only made it because they're goalies and not for a legitimate reason. Broduer wasn't good this year, and since we're judging by year (NHL 14) and usually only the players that do good in the year prior to the video game make it. Neither Broduer or Bobrovsky were as important to their team as Datsyuk was, not to mention Datsyuk should've already been on the cover.

I really wanted Tavares to win it. I was shocked Bob beat him.

Tavares would've been fine, too. He was the reason his team made it and is still real young.

I think the thing with Broduer is his age and this could possibly be his last year playing. So people want to see him on the cover for that reason.

I have no problem with Broduer on the cover. Would be neat to be the NHL cover on his last year.

If he actually plays next year. He has one more year on his contract right?

And the last goalie to grace the cover of NHL game was Turco if you count the NHL 2k series on 2k6, but for the NHL series, it was NHL 97 with Vanbiesbrouck.

Hiller was on the Swedish cover in NHL 12 though.
