Forsberg beats Habs

http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=185955&hubname=nhl

I went to the canadiens game on saturday when they played Peter Forsberg. Although Forsberg is the best player in the world, he plays on one of the worst teams, after coming off a win to the best team in the league the canadiens really should have beat the flyers. They canadiens clearly had shutting forsberg down in mind as they constantly had him double teamed, but this only worked about twice in the entire game as every other time he deked through everyone and did whatever he wanted. The only thing the canadiens were succesful with was not letting forsberg get a shto on goal but he did make plenty of amazing plays. Kovalev started the scoring off 8 minutes into the game taking the puck into the zone deking by a defender and ripping a slap shot over the shoulder of nittymaki from the top of the left circle. Early in the second period defencemasn joni pitkanen gave a pass to kapanen infrotn of the net and he scored. mike knuble then scored on an ugly garbage goal shove in rebound 16 minutes into the second although the canadiens might have been in awe after forsberg made an amazing play to get the puck to simon gagne. After kiilling off 2 penalties, with one secodn left in their last power play simon gagne got the puck next to the boards and one timed the puck and fanned on it still scored also with about 20 seconds left in the period. In the third period kovalev had the puck on the powerplay and made an incredibly pass threough traffic right into koivus blade for a goal. The canadiens rallied to get the tying goal but when the momentum was with them, michael ryder caughed up the puck to simon gagne and sheldon souray coughed it back up to him a second time to let him score. That's how the game finished.

I was so happy to be at this game regardless of what happenned because I got to see my two idols Alex Kovalev and Peter Forsberg all at once. They both played amazing, I wish forsberg would have taken at least one shot on net, he's too un selfish and tries to make everyone around him better which is what he flyers need, but at the same time he can win games all by himself. He made a lot of ncie plays though, a lto of nice plays. They both played up to their reputations, Kovalev handled the puck amazingly and deked so many defenders made so many ncie passes and scored an extremly nice goal and made an extremly nice pass, he played really well. Forsberg made nice passes and did everything he couldve done but he is not really palying with anyone he needs play to his potential. Simon Gagne and him arent clicking this year. David Aebischer didnt really play well as he let in pretty soft goals. We need to do something to Michael Ryder because everyone is still loving him over his breakout season before the lockout but since then he hasnt done very much. He is playing awfully this year, when Higgins was playing it was koivu and higgins, not ryder, he did ntohing. I like koivu though, i think i thought too little of him but he makes nice plays although sometimes he tries to be fancy when he really doesnt have the skill to do so, he does to a certain extent but hes no kovalev or forsberg.

Habs Beat Best

http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=185796&hubname=nhl

On Friday November 27th the canadiens played the buffalo sabres in a game that was probably seemd to be that the canadiens would lose and that would be that. The sabres scored the first goal of the game with an effort from spacek assisted by campbell. Huet played an amazing game making a ton of huge and really nice saves. Koivu then scored off a pass from ryder at 8:21 into the third period. The game went into overtime and with a mere 4 seconds left alex kovalev was going into the sabres zone, with 4 seconds left any player would shoot the puck as hard as possible and hope it goes in but kovalev is not like every other player as he remained patient, deked by 2 defenceman in order to get the puck to souray, souray took a quick shot and scored with half a second left in overtime. Huet made 29 saves on 30 shots.

Kovalev is the best player on the canadiens and i will admit at times he choses not to play his best, but everyone knows when he does he is second behind forsberg as the best player in the world. He is a magician with the puck and can control it however he wants, he can control the game and do whatever he feels like doing because of his incredible vision his strength and his puck control. His line has been playing a lot better then koivus line lately, kovalev and samsonov should be koivu's wingers on the first line, ryder hasn't doing anything productive in the past2 seasons and higgins is injured.

Ken Hitchcock gets hired

http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/news;_ylt=Ap_4Bm_tRBZxVOrfMB6_jtZ7vLYF?slug=ap-bluejackets-hitchcock&prov=ap&type=lgns

Ken hitchcock former philadelphia flyers head coach who was fired about a month ago by the team after a loss to the buffalo sabres 7-0, was re-hired by the columbus blue jackets. dan snider, the president of the philadelphia flyers commented on the firing of hitchcock saying the 7-0 loss to buffalo was his last straw before he had to make changes. the flyers hired hitchcock as a scout though. the struggling columbus blue jackets also fired their head coach and on sunday the 19th of november the blue jackets interviewed hithcock and only 2 days or so later announced him as their new head coach. it was said that the reason hitchcock was blamed for the poor performances by the flyers was because of how much he yelled at his players and devellopped a very negative atmosphere.

I kind of think hitchcock is a nice guy so i'm happy he got a new job. i jsut hope he choses a different coaching stragedy with his new team, because in sports and in life, when you yell at someone it will not get you anywhere positive and in turn probably make things worse. peter forsberg is the captain of hitchcocks old team the philadelphia flyers, and he is the best hockey player in the world. i hope hithcock well with his new team.

Kovalev beats Wild

http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=185528&hubname=nhl

Alex Kovalev and the montreal canadians beat the minnesota wild last night. the two koivu brothers saku and mikku played each other. the canadians were winning 2-0 by goals from kovalev and steve begin, the canadians then let the wild score 2 goals to make it 2-2. but from a spectacular pass from alex kovalev, radek bonk banked in the canadians 3rd goalto make the score 3-2. mike komesarik ten scored on the empty net to make it 4-2. kovalev was 3rd star of the game.

i think kovalev is an amazing player and without him the canadians would lacka great amount of skill, especially with higgins out too. im happy that the canadians won and kovalev played really well.

Has forsberg finally soolved his ankle porrgl23ms?

After being forced to have his ankles surgically realligned with the rest of his foot, Petey is feeling some setbacks. Forsberg still cant find a skate that fits his foot prefectly. His feet still roll around in his skates, which is what made him go off balance the other night while getting hit and hurting his back. Forsberg took a game off 2 weeks ago to rest his ankle and search for the perfect skate. In the end he found a solution, to use a certain type of brace, but the brace only caused his foot to roll in his skate.

Forsberg is the best player in the entire world. It is so unofortunate for him that he cant find a skate. Without Forsberg the Flyers have not been doing so well. It has been rumored that Forsberg may be traded back to his former team the Avalanche too. That would be amazing as I dont like the Flyers and Forsberg is my favorite player.

Malkin almost wins it for pens

The penguins were down 3-1 when Evgeni Malkin stripped the boston player of the puck scoring a beautiful goal to make it 3-2. Then with 30 seconds leftin the game Malkin set up a beautiful play with Mark Recchi in order to tie it up. Then in overtime Malkin had a partial breakaway after bolting past the defenceman, deked out tim tomas only to let the puck hit the post, bounce back and hit thomas and stay on the goal line.MArco Sturm won the game for Boston in a shootout. Pittsburgh did all this without one of their 2 key players, Sidney Crosby.

I think even though the Bruins are really bad it is so good how Malkin single handedly almost beat them. The rest of the penguins were playing awfully and Malkin played so well and did everything himself along with Fleury and Gonchar. Fleury made a huge and amazing save towards the end of the game to keep the penguins, its too bad they couldnt capitalize and win.

Touch Luck for jeff

http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/news;_ylt=AvqVMQfDJjIv3HBJOV1CXDB7vLYF?slug=ap-flyersmoves&prov=ap&type=lgns

i jsut typed a long blog on this and i pressed public post and it didnt post, so i dont feel like typing it all over again so i will type a shorter version of it.

jeff carter has had a slow start to this season coming off a good rookie season with 23 goals 19 assists. he broke his ankle and was close to coming back says coach steves and now he suffered a set back hruting his ankle again and iwll be out at least 6 weeks.


i feel real bad for jeff carter, i think him and his linemate mike richards have hada slow start to this season ebcause of the lack of confidence given by ex caoch ken htiochock. coach stevens is now working on mike richards by letting him play with peter forsberg on the first line to give him confidence. if carter was in hed be playing with simon gagne on line 2, this is a great idea by coach stevens, but its too bad carter is hurt and cant benefit from it.

Higgins gone for 6 weeks

http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/news;_ylt=Ak3C3UTDMekYBouvDriHY9x7vLYF?slug=ap-canadiens-higgins&prov=ap&type=lgns

After hurting leaving the ice when hurting his ankle in the game against the devils on saturday, chris higgins came back to the game still in "a lot of pain" and played and his ankle. Unfortunatly for higgins, he was unaware of how badly he injured his ankle, and going back to play only made it worse. chris partially tore a ligament in his ankle. this means he will be out of the lineup for a minimum of 6 weeks (originially 4, but now said to be 6). higgins leads the habs with 8 goals and 3 shorthanded goals. he is the canadians best young sniper and the canadians suffer a great loss without chris. guillaume latendresse will replace higgins on the ryder-koivu-higgins line.

i tihnk this is very bad for the canadiens. they had a great start to the season along with chris higgins having a fantastic start, hopefully higgins playing well wasnt what got the habs going. i have not been veyr impressed with how latendresse has been playing, he seems to be extremly nervous, hopefully playing on the top line will give him the boost he needs. after watching the oilers habs game last night with latendresse on the first line, latendresse scored an ugly first NHL goal, but did play decent, but was shaky in the shootout as he fanned on the backhand. i think the fans are putting too much pressure on him by chanting GUI and compaying him to guy lafleur all the time.

Staal stays

http://www.nhl.com/nhl/app?articleid=282120&page=NewsPage&service=page

Jordan staal, younger brother of eric staal and marc staal, and older borther of jared staal, no relation to bathroom staal, was recently given the news that he will be staying with the Pittsburgh pengions and the NHL, rather then being sent down to his junior team, peterborough. he has played 9 games totalling 4 goals ad 1 assist, 3 of his goals were shrothanded and one of thsoe were on a penality shot. he has to only play 1 more game, to ttotal 10, in order for his nhl slalary to kick in.

this is amazing for the penguins. the penguins were the a bsoolute worst in the league last year and now this` year they have a shot at going for in the playoffs if things contunie like this. they have arguably one of the best first lines with malkin-crosby-armstrong, who combine to a total of 63 years old, only 20 years older then chris chelios, crosby is amazing and got his first hat tricks saturday, malkin has socred evert game hes played so far, including one amazing goal. jordan staal with more confidence will be amazing. sergei gonchar and ryan whiteny are amazing defenceman and marce andere fleury is ana amazing goalie. john lecalir is good for leadership and 50 points, while recchi has stepped up his game since his stint with carolina.

Forsberg lifts flyers out of slump

http://www.nhl.com/nhl/app?service=page&page=Recap&gnum=162&seas=20062007>ype=2

Peter Forsberg score 2 goals in a 3-0 win over the chicago blackhawks. his first goal was a beautiful backhand goal after a pass from Ruzicka and his second goal was the nicest goal ever scored in the nhl after he deked around 2 defeders and slit it past brian boucher. simon gagne added the empty entter with 30 secodns left. mike richards scored a goal that was waved off because the refs were bad and lost sight of the puck and blew the whistle before it went in. forsberg also had a few huge hits.

i am very happy see this becuase peter forsberg is amazing and is god. i was very sad to see philly in a bad slump, i think it is just a matter of their 2 3 and 4 lines to regain confidence. i dont mean to just say forsberg and gagne's line is playing amazing, but they are gfetting a lot of points, ken hitcock was a bad coach and just intimidated his playes and too ktheir confidence, now its a period where they need to regain it and this win is a good tsart.

Noah

Beforehand I chose to be a criminal lawyer. After answering all the like or dislike things, I got Criminal Lawyer as my third ranked choice. Behind Polotician at #1 and Radio person at #2. I would never in my life want to be either of those 2 things, so I guess I technically got what I originally chose to be. I didn not find CEGEP programs but I found University programs at University, the one I was interested the most was called "Law".

In my "Suitable for you?" chart, I answered everything as "like very muhc" except presenting ideas and information in writing and providing a service to members of the public, both those things i said "does not matter" to. Now that I think abou it I do not know why i said that, I love presentjng ideas and information in writing very much, a lot. and i enjoy providing services to the public, but i thought of it as community service, as if i would not get paid for it, so i got confused. so everything in my chart i "like very much". I would cope with this amazinigly because I would love every aspect of my job. My original career choice matched the same as my second one, so my interests were matched perfectly. I still think it would be a career choice for me, aside from the whole thing on career cruising linking me to being what I originally chose for a career, i love shows like csi that involve criminal law, i've always wanted ot be one of those lawyers in thsoe shows. also i like arguing and i'm good at getting my point across and i love investigating stuff.

Souray is the man

I went to the hockey game saturday, therefore I am my source.

After 15 minutes of penalty trouble and the canadians sleeping and hanging aebischer out to drive, marek svatos pulled a nice move to get around a canadiens defecenman and passing it to sakic with a wide open net for a goal. 26 seconds later sakic made a pass to the front of the net that craig rivet kicked right to andrew brunette with a wide open net for another goal. 50 seconds later paul stastny scored his first nhl goal. after playing with flat feet and no motivation for 16 minutes the canadians were in depserate need for someone to step up. On the powerplay, a minute after colorado 3rd goal, off a feed from markov, souray blasted a shot past jose the-open-dore. Finally playing with some motivation, on the powerplay, identical to the first goal, off a feed from markov, souray took a laser from the point past theodore. souray also got 2 assists, totalling 2 goals and 2 assists. the score was 3-2 when tyler arnason scored for the avs to make it 4-2. while fans and the players may have been put down, kovalev and samsonov were not as kovalev fed samsonov an amazing pass for an amazing goal and they made the score 4-3. This sparked momentum for the canadiens as 25 seconds into the third period on the powerplay souray passed it to koivu next to the post, and koivu made a nice cross crease pass to ryder and he scored. Craig Rivet stepepd out of the penality box at 5:30 and got a breakaway pass from koivu and scored and jumped up and down...its good to see rivet can contribute somehow...then at 10:55 andrew brunette scored again to tie it at 5. again on the powerplay off a nice play by markov, higgins tucked in the goal. a minute later brisebois caughed up the puck to samsonov msaking a beautiful pass to kovalev in the slot...i dont think its necessary to say what happenned after kovalev got the puck in the slot. after that to top it off at 8-5 johnson took a slapshot from the slot while falling and scored.

This game was probably the most amazing hockey game ever. Everyone was booing and taunting theodore, and at the end I kind of felt bad for him, but I dont care anymore. They were booing brisebois too, but I didnt feel bad for him. I think kovalev is amazing but carbonneau needs to somehow get a better centerman with him and samsonov, plekanec doesnt really do anything. Markov is also amazing, he makes so many nice plays. Higgins and ryder and koivu are an amazing line. Aebischer made so many nice saves. Souray is the man...that's all, souray is so good and if we ever trade him the GM should be immediatly fired. He could be the best defenceman in the league if he would work a lot more on his 1 on 1 coverage, he needs to know how to not get the crap deked out of him, once he does that he can definitly be one of the best defecenman in the league. Hehas the best slap shot in the world. Ryder has the best accurary was his shot too. Kovalev makes so many nice moves its crazy. I can't wait for tonights game against Buffalo I hope we win so badly.

Criminal Lawyer

I want to be a criminal lawyer when I grow up, my aunt is also one. I chose social studies...but I think everyone was told to chose that. I looked at Candice's interview. Typically, people starting off working as a criminal lawyer make from 45,000$-55,000$. Candice's day begins at 9 am, she arrives at a courthouse, she speaks to the counsel of the defence, seeing if there have been any changes in the proceedings. Her day ends at 7 pm preparing for the next day's trial, by researching stuff and going over notes. In order to really enjoy this job, you must really enjoy working inside, meaning indoors, working alone, working at a desk, stnading up a lot, sometimes working with co-workers, using computers, and sometimes writing and drawing. There is not many hours that include serving clients, working with numbers, creating stuff, using machines, working outside, any physical work or travelling.

Unfortunatly, due to me being intrested in being a criminal lawyer, it is frustrating that one of my favorite and strongest subjects is math. I really enjoy working with numbers, doing math, figuring mathematical questions out etc... I guess i could convert this need to work out math questions, to working out psychological questions, or medical questions, or anything involving solving sometihng, which is good because I enjoy figuring stuff out, and I like psychology. I would definitly most enjoy my independance. I am the tpye of person who realies on myself and myself only when it comes to work that I want to get done and understand, so if i develop a passion for being a criminal lawyer i will obviously want to be the best at my job, therefore working by myself is really good for me.

This jobs NOC code is 411, but it says judges and lawyers, so I assume that includes criminal lawyers. AS previously mentioned, early starting criminal lawyers wages are about 50.000$.

Unions

I read about unions. I read abotu the different types of unions. I learned many technical words people use when talking about unions, the workers in a unions and the work places where they gather. I learned how uniosn are created, what they do and what they need to go through in order to get it done. I learned many different outcomes that can happen due to a union taking action. Having unions is a very intelligent thing.

I think unions are an amazing thing for our economy. I do not have any experience to back my opinion up, but judging by things you read, tihngs you hear and tihngs you see and people tell you things and jsut the common typcical stereotype people have for owners, is that they are greedy, unfair and often don't pay you enough. After reading about unions and the different types of unions, how certain ones are organized, what goes on to create a union, how unions work, how they work with one another in certain situations, the steps they take to get their opinions across and make a deal with their bosses, and the different things that can take place when a trade bargain is created. I was very impressed with how organized unions seem to be, I think unions are very benefitial in a mixed economy, because due to trade bargaining, not every specific person gets specificlalyl everytihng they want, but it makes everyone generally happier with their job.

Kovalev will keep flying

http://tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=180581&hubname=nhl

After a New York Yankees pitcher had an extremly unfortunate accident, losing control of his plane that he took out just to cruise around the new york waters with, lost control of the plane, and while trying to regain control, made a 90 degree turn directly into a building. People thought this was another terrorist attack but were soon given relief to find out it wasnt. Although that is relieiving, everyone is still extremly sad for what happenned to this man. After this event, managers of sports teams starting realizing that they may be letting their players have too much freedom. They sign players for a lot of money, and sign them to be a bug asset their team, some managers have told their players that for instance they cannot fly a plane anymore, or ride a motorcycle. Alex Kovalev flies planes on his pass time, and has decided he will continue to do so, and is greatful that GM Bob Gainey has not forced him to stop

I think it is a huge tragedy to see such a talented man at the sport of baseball lose his life. It goes to show how easily something can happen. I feel extremly bad for the family of the man, I'm sure he had so many extremly loyal fans who are very sad because of this. On the more political note, I don't think any General Manager has the right to tell a player that he or she cannot do soemtihng he or she lvoes to do because it is dangerous. Unless it is originally in the contract, everyone should be allowed to do what thye want, the players should take responsibility and think twice. Alex Kovalev is amazing at hockey.
