Do you miss hockey?

It's definitely not something that I think about day to day.  Or even week to week.  I guess really the only difference for me is that I don't bother checking to see if the Bruins are playing while looking for games to put on the TV's in my bar.  But if you go to espn.com right now and click on their NHL page, this is what you'll find:


They're reporting on a fake video game season simulated by EA Sports NHL 13.  They've got headlines, scores, and standings posted.  There's even "video" highlights of fictitious games announced by actual Sportscenter anchor Steve Levy.  If you squint your eyes while watching, or stand a few feet back from your computer, you'd never even know it wasn't real.
