The end of EA Sports’ NHL 14 Cover Vote is drawing near. On the last leg of their campaigning, goaltenders Sergei Bobrovsky and Martin Brodeur decided to take over the @NHLPA Twitter account to do back-to-back question and answer sessions with fans.
May 30th, from 5:00 - 7:30 pm EST, fans sent in over a thousand questions using the #AskBobrovsky and #AskBrodeur hashtags. Collectively, the two goalies answered close to 100 questions.
Here is a quick look at some of the best exchanges between the players and their fans.
Sergei Bobrovsky took over the account first:
