I watch all the games for free on the net-always have.

that's just fine for those who enjoy it, but I can't imagine watching
anything on my computer, when I can watch it on my 52" television hd.
and, my husband would never watch anything, as his eyes aren't good
enough to see the game properly, he would be frustrated.

my daughter won't own a tv, and she says the same thing to me, wonders
why I just don't watch 'things' on the computer, jeesh, we watch the
most beautiful things on the tv, that would never look nearly as nice
on the computer, 'Canada over the edge', 'aerial america', many animal
shows, and lots of sports.

wow, just watched oilers come from behind 3-0 to beat the habs in the 3rd scoring 4 straight goals. so exciting
indeed, darnell nurse brought up, played great, leon draisaitl also brought up, scored 2 goals, played
great, mcdavid 2 assists, Talbot very good in goal.
things are starting in Edmonton, its time, its time, I love it.

canucks lost in OT to dallas, the best offensive team in the league in my opinion, with Jamie benn and
company, and they turned it on in the 3rd, you could see the big push, and they tied it, and then
when benn got that puck back after losing it in OT, a point blank shot, I knew before he let it go
that was the end. anyway, canucks came away with a point, now on to Arizona tomorrow.

carol 3 - islanders 2 OT
pitts 4 - buff 3
new jers 4 - philly 1
col. 2 - tb 1
st. Louis 2 - anna 1
winn 3 - chic 1
dall 4 - van. 3 OT
Edm 4 - montreal 3, yes.

I wish I had 2 big screen tvs. one for tv, the other one for computer. :cool: :(

yep, that'll do it, you'll never go out again. lol

Another period like that and Arizona will have the Canucks right where they want them. Right now 3-0 Van after one.

good game, I'm so sick of listening to the media over and over dwell
on the canucks losing in the 3rd, glad Daniel between periods squelched
the same comment from murph, there is another team who doesn't want to
lose, they put on a big push when they are behind in the 3rd, so be it.
get over it.
nice to see gaunce get his first nhl goal, bachman played very well in goal,
and they came out with a win, now back to Vancouver to play philly.

jets 3 , jackets 2
bruins 3 lightening 1
blues 3 wild 2
penguins 4 leafs 0
capitals 2 panthers 1
flames 5 oilers 4
dall 5 , san jose
l.a. 4 , nash 3

watching flames and oilers, flames have had breaks tonight, one goal from goalie screw up behind net,
oilers had a goal taken away after 'hartley' asked for a review, they decided to overturn officials
call of 'good' goal, I totally disagree with the call, goalie wasn't hampered in any way from making
a save or not.also one soft goal from a distance, so it seems everything is just going flames way
tonight.

one period left, lets see if oilers can scratch out something, anything for themselves in this one.
well, oilers fought back and tied it up, with 8 seconds left in the game
Talbot let in a very soft goal from the boards, behind the goal line,
which squeaked in under his pads, if I were him tonight, I would sneak out
thru the Zamboni back door and quietly go home without facing anyone, jeesh
he was awful tonight, after he has been so very good till tonight. oh well
thems the breaks.
Hartley 'again' asked for a review on a goal they scored, and wasn't allowed
because of goalie interference, he lost the challenge, which was the right
call. whew.
I was waiting with baited breath for mcDavid to play 3 on 3.

l.a. have now won 7 in a row, tied with canucks at the top of the pacific
division, but l.a. have a game in hand.

san joes just defeated Colorado 4-3 in Colorado, avalanche struggling again, so much talent on that team,
and roy is a good coach, not sure what their problem is, maybe he is too harsh with them, but I'm only
guessing, maybe its the French accent, or the beard, or the piercing eyes, but if they lose all this
season again, maybe they will say good bye to him.

montreal defeated Winnipeg, 5-1
ducks, 4 pred. 2 - Nashville just played yesterday afternoon, so took them a period to wake up, then game was very competitive, ducks looking better now, they will probably start climbing up the stat sheet, getzlaf healing from apendectomy, will be back soon.
lightening 4 - Carolina 3
buffalo 2 - islanders 1, don't think Tavares played.

Vancouver Island
leafs 4, stars 1
hawks 4, kings 2

canucks 4, flyers 1

canucks came out like gangbusters in the first, flyers made a push in the second, and
canucks had to battle that period, but were outplayed, then the third belonged to
the canucks again, Virtanen scored his 1st nhl goal, horvat, Hansen, then bartkowski scored
the empty netter.

a bright spot tonight was sven baertschi, who has not played well thus far, this season, but
tonight I saw more from him, and I'm sure Desjardin will be pleased with him as well.

bo horvat played a great game, I see him as the future captain of the canucks, he just has
that solid leadership character,and such a good player, even tho he hasn't put up many
points yet this season, he will.

and what can we say about ben hutton, he has so much natural ability, looks like a
definite keeper, he is such a pure defenseman, quite amazing to watch him.

miller has been brilliant, looks so calm and efficient.

I was very happy to hear from jim benning that both virtanen and McCann will be staying on past the 10 game rule, so now 40 games is the next point where they
have to make a decision to keep them or send them back, they have both earned
the decision to keep them on, they make a difference to the team, and seems
they will be with the team for many years to come.

they can go to the world junior tournament, if the canucks feel comfortable
doing without them for that length of time, so they will make that decision
when the time comes, can depend on the injury situation with the team.

canucks play pittsburg wed., who have played well lately, then they are
off to buffalo, first game of that big road trip, 7 games in 14 days.

san jose/Columbus still playing 4-2,columbus, almost end of 2nd period.

iginla had 2 goals 1 assist,for Colorado, was first star, as much as he
must love playing with those young guys, he is also very good
for them.
watched Edmonton game, mcDavid was taken heavily into the end boards by
two philly players, hit his should extremely hard, did not return, hope
its not too long out of the lineup, eberle also had a shoulder injury, was
out for a long time, almost ready to return.

yep, I heard that too, what a shame, seems he just caught a rut as he was about to cut to go around behind the goal,
then the other guys ran into him, but they didn't do the damage, the force of his own speed going
into the boards did it.

eberle will be back soon, will play without ever playing with mcDavid for quite a while it seems(,except in pre season games,)
pretty weird for him.

but mcDavid will be back eventually, good as new, at least he can skate for a long time, as he waits
to return, good luck to him, what a heart breaker for him, and the team.

Winnipeg 4, - Toronto 2
st. Louis 6, - Chicago 5, Chicago was up 5-1 very early in the game, that gradually disappeared, went to OT
Pittsburgh 3, - Vancouver 2, very odd indeed to see pittsburg play good defense, have never seen that before, hence, win over canucks.
florida ahead of Anaheim 2-1 half way thru 3rd period.
ducks tied it up with 5 seconds left, now to OT,
ducks won in a SO.

canucks off to buffalo, first game of 7 game road trip, good luck to them.
