YIKES! That’s all I can say at the moment. TSX has seen red for three days straight — with a 5% loss over those days. Now I wish I didn’t splurge on AIG and CENX stocks last week. By the way, CENX released their third quarter earnings just yesterday and they did pretty well, yet managed to falter with the market. YIKES! YIKES! YIKES!
And what?! Luongo injured? He was playing a couple games injured?! Should he even be that dedicated this early in the season? Come on Bobby Lu. Let’s heal a bit quicker, shall we? By the way last night’s game was a gongshow. It felt like I was watching game six of the Canucks and Blackhawks series. Ouch… (even I can’t believe I went there)

Vancouver Canucks’ first game is on tonight as they take on the Calgary Flames. The Canucks look fresh and ready to play. They have three superb lines including their new additions Sergei Shirokov (a.k.a. Pavel Bure #2) and Mikael Samuelsson. Wow, I remember having Samuelsson’s hockey card back in elementary school. He didn’t look young at all in those cards. The D is not bad also. I very much liked our off-season transaction, picking up Christian Ehrhoff.
My prediction: Canucks – 4, Calgary – 1
Watch out Flames! Go Canucks go!
Remember last year?
#8 – Ovechkin
On another note, Ovechkin is picking up where he left off — a monster… err… I meant a force in the NHL. Already up three points and two goals in the early third period. Absolutely the most exciting player on the NHL. If only Canucks picked him up…
