Oh and Kane's assault happened after being named to the cover.

But Toews and Kane won the SC, Stamkos is a Rocket Richard and top scorer in the league

I'm more concerned with them actually improving the Cussing game for cone as opposed to who's on the cover. Same game every year!

Just vote damnit. Seriously. Who cares about what you think about the game right now - this is about voting a Senator on the cover. And besides, nothing about the game has been revealed, so your comment is irrelevant until you have anything to be actual concerned about.

Just vote for Karlsson damnit. Why would you not want a Senator player on the cover of an international videogame played by millions of people worldwide?

In fact, because he is Swedish, they might even keep him on the cover in Sweden. (They do different covers in Europe).

It make not difference whether *we* believe in the curse or not. My performance as a fan does not influence the team's performance.

The players, however, are often deeply (and most irrationally) superstitious. *They* may believe in the curse.

Or they are extremely grateful for being named the cover athlete as the others have, and get sponsorships and endorsements and media publicity.

Also, to show you how serious the players are, the guys in the voting process that re on Twitter are plugging away trying to get votes. Too bad Karlsson isn't on there.

NHL '08 then had Eric Staal
NHL '09 had Phaneuf
NHL '10 had Kane
NHL '11 had Toews
NHL '12 Stamkos

So the curse was in effect up until NHL '10. I'm just saying...why take chances. #VoteKessel

Voted some more for Karlsson, but this is only the beginning. Right now it's deciding between him or Spezza. It's going to get a lot tougher when he's up against Subban and the other guys for example.

Going to need all the support he can. You know those Montreal and Toronto fans will be going all out on the voting.

Let Montreal and Toronto have it...they deserve SOMETHING...and that something is a cursed player.

There was a movement to get Stajan voted in. I'd be on board with that.

Not from what I am able to see - I think the only way to remotely gauge popularity is to see how many "likes" other players have on the NHL 13 facebook page.

I've been voting daily, as much as I can.

Karlsson advances to the next round (head-to-head voting). Ironically he is matched-up against Lundqvist.

Voting for his half of the brackets begins May 3.

If Sens win the Rangers fans switch over to Yankees and the next round would be a cake-walk for Karlsson. If they lose it's a different story.

Well, Karlsson is out of the running now, losing to Lundqvist. Make it Rangers 5, Sens 3.
