Patrice Bergeron Named NHL 15 Cover Athlete

Announced last night at the NHL Awards Show, Patrice Bergeron of the Boston Bruins has been selected for the cover of NHL 15. Whether that selection was made by the fans or EA Sports who noted in the terms they could override results and choose who they wanted anyway, he beat out the Canadians’ P.K. Subban in the finals of the competition.

NHL 15 is due out September 9 and will feature a new commentary team, NBC presentation, enhanced physics, and next-gen visuals on Xbox One and PS4. Pre-orders will receive $15 worth of Ultimate Team packs as a bonus. An “Ultimate Edition” of the game will also be available for $10 more that will include $40 in Ultimate Team content.
