No word yet but I'm going to guess it'll happen this year.

In the first year of the console there was no indication that a sport as small as hockey would sell. That's why we only saw games with global appeal (soccer, baseball, football)

Now that the Wii has over 20 million and more by the start of the next season I bet we see someone take a shot at it.

I am hoping whoever makes a hockey game will try to use Winning Eleven's control scheme. It could maybe go to a Wii Sports style for shootouts...

Chances are we'll see an EA game. Not so sure about 2K, though, they've never been a big supporter of Nintendo.

Hey awesome, that's one of the first things I thought of when I saw the winning eleven video come out months ago. That could work perfectly for hockey.

NBA Live 08 for the Wii has been totally trashed by game critics. So if you're looking for a great sports game for the Wii, don't expect EA to deliver.
