i've been busy, canucks haven't been...much...

i pretty much just had a week off. come home from uvic for 6 days, went back to write 2 more exams, then caught a red-eye bus home that night.
anyways...
wednesday 17th:
canucks beat oilers. can't remember much of the game, but it was linden night (great ceremony for retiring the jersey), 1st period was dead, then nucks score 4 times in 2nd. we win 5-3, with two goals and an assist for demitra.
thursday 18th:
mats sundin, the toronto superstar, announces that he is signing with the canucks. now that he has finally made a decision, let's see if he actually plays for the 5 million.
saturday 20th:
canucks lose 3-1 to chicago. i didn't watch the game, but i heard that canucks opened the scoring, and that they had a lot of chances that just barely missed. for this game, i was on a greyhound from victoria to campbell river, getting home late that night instead of being stuck in victoria the next day. bus got in at 2:00 in the morning, 2 hours late.

so, as i type, canucks are playing the ducks. losing 1-0 in the 1st period so far. should be a fun game.
i predict i won't be typing as much over christmas, so i will just list the next couple games now:
tuesday december 23rd in san jose @ 7:00 pm
friday december 26th vs edmonton @ 7:00 pm (my friend is going to this game!)
sunday december 28th vs ottawa @ 7:00 pm
tuesday december 30th vs philadelphia @ 7:00 pm

what am i missing? oh yes, current NW standings:
1st - calgary (yes, they passed us) - 3rd in conference
2nd - vancouver - 5th in conference (currently tied with anaheim, tie will break with one game tonight)
3rd - minnesota - 9th in conference (they're falling now)

since i probably won't post again for the next few days, MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
