'The bad news for the Buffalo Sabres is that they are 1-3-2 after their first six games. The good news is that there are Sabres playing hockey, at least in the imaginary world created by G4TechTV, a cable channel that is simulating all 1,230 games of the NHL regular season. They play games with the video-game versions of real players on real NHL teams, using EA Sports' NHL 2005 on Xbox.'
