Simulated Lightning kicking virtual butt
It would be… no… yeah, I guess it would be better to have the real hockey players back on the ice, but as long as my beloved Lightning keep winning somehow, I almost don’t care:
Flyers, Lightning, Oilers enjoy good week in simulated NHL season

(CP) – The Calgary Flames continue to lead the league but Philadelphia and Tampa Bay made moves this week to top their divisions in The Canadian Press’s simulated NHL season.
The Lightning (14-13-4, 32 points) took seven of eight points on offer during the week, defeating Chicago 2-1, Montreal 3-2 and the Islanders 2-1 while tying the Minnesota Wild 1-1 in games simulated for The Canadian Press by Electronic Arts, using its made-in-Vancouver NHL 2005 game. That run moved the Stanley Cup champion into first place in the Southeast Division ahead of Atlanta and Florida.

It appears hopeless that the NHL and the player’s union will come to an accord for this season.
What a big disappointment. I really was looking forward to seeing them play.
The local cable sports channel is running games from last season. That and the championship DVD is all we got!
