Dion Phaneuf Covers NHL 09
Dion Phaneuf Covers NHL 09
What, no players at all from either the Pittsburgh Penguins or the Detroit Red Wings? Anyway, the young Calgary Flames defenseman will be featured everywhere except for Russia and Sweden, where Alexander Ovechkin and Daniel Alfredsson will appear in his place.

Electronic Arts announced today that Dion Phaneuf will be the cover athlete and spokesman for NHL 09. The Calgary Flames defenseman is a two-time All-Star and has 159 points in his career. Additionally, EA announced that Alexander Ovechkin of the Washington Capitals and Daniel Alfredsson of the Ottawa Senators will be covering the Russian and Swedish versions of the game, respectively.
"It is an incredible honor to be named to the cover of NHL 09," said Phaneuf. "I've been a really big fan of the franchise for as long as I can remember and am looking forward to being the face of the game this year, particularly because of the significant improvements that have been made to the defensive game and the new checking engine."
NHL 09 will release on PS2, PS3, PC and Xbox 360 in Fall 2008.
