EA says Maple Leafs would have beaten Red Wings in 2013 Winter Classic

if you’re a hockey fanatic, you know that the NHL and the Players Association are this close to cancelling the entire season over their labor dispute. But with talks resuming today, there’s still hope that we could see some professional hockey in 2013.

What you may not know is that EA Sports has been simulating the entire 2012-2013 season with NHL 13 and they just posted a highlight reel of what have been tomorrow’s Winter Classic between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Detroit Red Wings.

The Winter Classic would have been a tense back-and-forth that remained tied at 4-4 through overtime. But the Maple Leafs would emerge victorious thanks to a shootout goal from John-Michael Liles.

I bet it would have been a great game.
