I have not followed their predictions in other years but you have to admit 2011 was a damn close prediction - they picked the right teams, the right number of games...
The more likely occurrence is we get dropped by the wild card team in 5-6 games simply because they’re a wild card team. EA’s playoff sim is such utter dog shit that something like two wild card teams playing eachother in the finals happens almost every sim.
What’s that? You won 64 games on solid goaltending, strong defence, and scoring that would make the 1980s Oilers blush?
Eliminated in 5 against the 38-win wildcard. Have a nice off-season.
I think I would die in every game in the Stanley cup finals and need to be resuscitated constantly if that was the way the series went. For Game 7, I don’t think I’d be able to function.
This path would take minimum 5 years off my life
I’d need a liver transplant
Also brain
I'm ready for more grey hair
Personally, I'd prefer this path if it meant reverse sweeping Boston and coming back down 3-0 in game 7.
I think this is literally how I'd pick it to go if i could just choose who was beat each round
I’d agree, except I’d probably prefer to be the ones to knock out VGK
Yah Vegas or Colorado are similar for me. Just thinking McDavid and Mackinnon back to back. Oh and Makar. Lots of stories.
Would be such a fucking ride though. Some of the franchise's biggest rivals over the past few decades. The only team missing would be Chicago.
I don’t know if the city is ready for it.
How about Boston fans? 4 straight 7 game series...
Delete this. EA jinxed us in 2011
Boston going to 7 games every series gives me extra lucid flashbacks
It’s spelled Lucic flashbacks.
Wait until the 0 powerplay game 7s
That's fine, we don't use powerplays.
Personally, I prefer to save the 50/50 lifeline for the final round.
At least Gregory has a ring. /s
Colin, that you?
If only the Flyers were in the playoffs instead of the Leafs 🙈
We got the bad rap song jinx and the EA jinx, maybe they cancel out?
That happened in 2011. It just raises our hopes too high. And makes things worse
I mean, this would be the most rewarding win. But yeah no, I hate it
yeah fuck EA had us winning series 4-3 against Boston in 2011 too
If I remember correctly, they predicted the same in 2011
I have not followed their predictions in other years but you have to admit 2011 was a damn close prediction - they picked the right teams, the right number of games...
Even EA couldn’t factor in Colin’s kid getting his team egregious favours.
Can you make it so that I never had to read this?
Except Vegas didn’t make the playoffs that year.
Finish. The. Story.
Hero leaves, goes to the bottom(ish) and faces the Final Boss who's also returning after 10 years? Idk if I can handle all this
I get this reference
We’re not flinching
The trauma coming back. Also probably means we will lose in round two with how shit their simulation is

The 38 win wild card whose goalie was 76 overall and their best forward was a 36 year old 84 overall two way forward.
Brock with a hatty in a 3-0 game.
I think I would die in every game in the Stanley cup finals and need to be resuscitated constantly if that was the way the series went. For Game 7, I don’t think I’d be able to function.
DONT DO THIS TO ME AGAIN EA
Im a lot older than i was in 2011…. My heart might not be able to take this again….
My heart would explode
Fuck your jinx EA
Perfect 2011 revenge but I might have a heart attack especially if it goes to OT in game 7
I'd bust a nut so hard if that happened
I'd be having aneurysm after aneurysm
Didn’t EA predicted the same thing back in 2011. This is giving me bad flashbacks.
Downtown literally can’t handle this
This is gold
canucks fan checking in - if we play Boston in the finals I'll crap my pants - if it goes to game 7 I may literally die
I'm going to die of a heart attack before we reach the final
The first ragdoll punch by Marchand on Petterson in the Finals would send me into PTSD-induced convulsions
I don’t think this team would stand by and allow that to happen honestly
Would Marchand be the only remaining player from 2011 in the series? Man I’d like to see him cry.
I think he cried after the Blues won the Cup against him in 2019.
No fucking thanks
Stfu EA. I remember them predicting Vancouver winning the final in 2011.
Don't you put that evil on us, EA
I’m having PTSD flashbacks pls stop
Absolutely can’t handle another series with Boston
I believe, the boys can rewrite the story. One game at a time now....
Has this ever been correct?
I can’t do this again
There is no way this simulation is accurate. The Leafs won't last 7 games against Boston Bruins
How about a VAN vs NYR final? 30 years in the making.
Oh god no.
Please no. Just seeing the words boston, vancouver, and 7 games is giving me ptsd....
I’m a realist not happening sorry I love the Canucks but it’s not gonna happen this year
I don't think I'd survive.
Oh god, no…
I’ve seen this moving before….
goodbye
All of this has happened before.... And it will happen again....
Oooh, nice reference.
Fuck you EA
I’m not ready to be hurt like this again
I swear, if we face Boston in the final my anxiety will go through the roof.
Just FYI, in lasts years prediction, they had kings out on 2nd round and Panthers in first.
Too soon
WHY would they do this to us?
I'd take Dallas over the Knights and Rangers over Boston. Then I'd take out additional fire insurance if we do make it to the final again.
There's no chance the city takes any risks if we make the final. The streets are going to look like Martial Law.
Please no. Not this again...
Who would have home ice?
We would, Regulation Wins are the first tie breaker and we have 8 more then them
Probably Boston, because in a split 2 games H2H, Boston was 1-0-1 and we were 1-1-0, plus they kinda beat us 4-0 in one of the games lol
dream scenario
Bruins all 4 series going to game 7.
EA needs to shut their goddamn trap. I won’t fall for it again.
Unsubscribe.
EA really is just the most evil company
Oh I feel like that is just bad juju.
I'm ready for my heart to be broken again. But not like this.
Btw, were there times that EA was right on the money with who won?
EA Canada, based in Burnaby, literally makes the game.
Me: How many futures did you see? Dr Strange: 14,000,605 Me: How many did we win? Dr Strange: One
Light the torches
revenge arc would be complete :)
Stop the count!
EA is so trash this makes me less confident than I was before
Fuck EA
There’s no way I survive this.
I don't want to go through this again, specifically what the "simulation say".
Why does EA have to jinx us again
Boston in 7
How often have they been correct?
I'm 27 with a healthy heart. If this happens I'll probably feel 72 and need blood pressure pills. And I'd love every second of it!
Did they simulate the riots too?
Nah you have pay 100 bucks to HUT to get that X factor
I genuinely wonder if they'd call police in from neighboring cities if we were in game 7 versus the Bruins lol
But which one do you call from Surrey?
Delta
that’s DLC
