Bernier plays NHL '08
Adjusting to the time difference between London and Los Angeles, Bernier said he woke up at 4:30 a.m. early in the week and was slowly getting back to normal. Asked what he did when he got up at that time of day, he mentioned PlayStation 3. I asked if he played our favorite game, NHL '08, and he said that was the game he has been playing. Since he isn't in the game, I asked if he created himself. He said no, that he plays as the Kings but he uses Cloutier as the goalie. I thought that was funny.
