Since when did NHL 09 become so difficult to purchase?

You probably haven't noticed but the Boston Bruins are kicking ass...so much ass in fact, we are now making family hockey nights a tradition again -- we're all very excited for the Canadiens-Bruins game tomorrow.

I had purchased the PS3 version of NHL 09, but my son would rather play on his 360. No problem, I'll trade it in for the 360 version. One problem..you can't find this game anywhere in New England. I've been to three GameStops, one Best Buy, two Wal-Marts and one Target and none of them have the game. You'd think it's Wii fit or something.

Speaking with one of my regular GameStop contacts, they say the game is flying out the door, which is very unusual for an NHL game. You can find NHL 2K9, however, but NHL 09 is tough to find.

It is available on Amazon, so I will probably get that. It's even tough to get on Gamefly. Damn...so if the Bruins play well they could single handedly revitalize videogame sales, I guess...
