Still MIGHTY Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 My only issue is that if you didn't know the cover was supposed to be Steven Stamkos, it'd be really hard to tell.You can't see the name. Most people don't know the new jersey, and they really aren't going to know it without the big logo on the front.It really looks like an awkward position for a cover shot. I'm fine with Stamkos as the cover, but they need a better picture. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiddySicks Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Waht happens if Stamkos signs an offer sheet somewhere else? On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayrider Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Waht happens if Stamkos signs an offer sheet somewhere else?Stamkos will probably be earning somewhere in the $6-7M range which would require teams to have possession and give up a multitude of first round picks for several years to come, including several 2nd round picks as well in compensation to Tampa.As far as the cover goes, at first glance i thought it was one of the Sedins. I don't get all the lines across the image. It looks like a giant mess, almost like an artist sketching an image with pencil. It's really hard to make out who it is exactly. Maybe go for a shot that reveals the TB logo, and shows more of Stamkos's face without all the obstruction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TornadoGTS Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Hi-res version:(Click Pic) Facebook: CustomSportsCovers Twitter: CSCovers Quote No because when the Irish came to Ireland and first came in contact with the leprechaun people, they didn't take their land away and force them to move west. Instead, the two groups learned to assimilate peacefully. However, certain tribes of the leprechaun refused to taint the pure blood and moved north into the forests of Ireland, only to be seen rarely, usually at the same time of a rainbows appearance and occasionally at the factories of Lucky Charms.

WSU151 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Waht happens if Stamkos signs an offer sheet somewhere else?Remember when Favre signed with the Jets? Madden simply changed unis on the cover.

Still MIGHTY Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Cool to see Jonas on the cover, although it's always a little disappointing to know that the only time a Duck has ever been on the cover has been in Europe (This one with Hiller, then the Finnish cover usually has Teemu on it.)And that picture of Jonas is from two seasons ago, but whatever you want to do EA | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drakonius26 Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 I'm surprised Ice Cap hasn't left his comment about the Tampa Bay Maple Lightning cover yet, but overall I don't mind it. I'm thankful it isn't another Blackhawks player.My biggest complaint is that it appears that the guys at EA Sports didn't get the memo about Tampa Bay's "actual" uniform updates.

I mean, nothing will beat their phenomenal screw-up that was Madden NFL 2005, or how you had to enter the Reebok Edge code in NHL 08. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
