Same drill as last time for start !

I believe what the video is trying to say is that one day we may not be allowed to express our faith without paying a price ! We must all take courage and stand up for what we believe !

Cool Vid !

Wow ! but not "good wow" !

The Oilers lost 3-0 to the Detroit RedWings ! They failed to register a shot in the first period and were outshot 45-16 !

Roloson stopped 42/45 shots !

Jason Williams suffered a tremendous check from Raffe Torres and landed flat on his face, expect post concussion syndrome after this monster hit (and Yes, it was a legal hit too!)

The Oilers take to the ice with little time to rest as they lost in the shoot-out to Montreal last night ! They catch the Redwings on the rebound and hope to put a "W" in their record. The last time the two teams met the Oil beat Detroit 3-1 and Lupul had the game winner late in the 3rd period. Look to Joffrey to add to his total as he has 4 points in 8 games all time vrs. the Wings. Besides I have him in my pool this week, and his points will help !

Game Day !

Tue., November 7, 5:30pm mst TV: Sportsnet

The Edmonton Oilers open a five-game road trip this evening at the Bell Centre in Montreal. It will be the Oilers' first game in Montreal since a 4-2 win back on November 4, 2003. The Oilers are struggling to find their game right now, dropping a 3-2 decision to Dallas on a questionable call Friday night. After opening the season 6-2-0, they have lost four of their last five games and now sit in the ninth place in the Western Conference.This upcoming five-game road swing is crucial for the Oilers to get back on track and also improve on their 1-4 road record. Montreal is off to a strong start this season with a record of 7-3-3 but Buffalo's record-setting 10-0-0 start has the Habs eight points out of first in the Northeast Division. They're also only two points ahead of 10th in the Eastern Conference despite their good start.

Strong Tower

*

When I wander through the desert

And I'm longing for my home

All my dreams have gone astray

When I'm stranded in the valley

And I'm tired and all alone

It seems like I've lost my way

I go runnign to Your moutain

Where your mercy sets me free

*

chorus

You are my strong tower

Shelter over me

Beautiful and mighty

Everlasting King

You are my strong tower

Fortress when I'm weak

Your name is true and holy

And Your face is all I seek

*

In the middle of my darkness

In the nidst of all my fear

You're my refuge and my hope

When the storm of life is raging

And the thunder's all I hear

You speak softly to my soul

*

chorus

You are my strong tower

Shelter over me

Beautiful and mighty

Everlasting King

You are my strong tower

Fortress when I'm weak

Your name is true and holy

And Your face is all I seek

I lie here paralytic inside this soul

Screaming for you till my throat is numb

I wanna break outI need a way out

I don't believe that it's gotta be this way

The worst is the waiting

In this womb I'm suffocating

Feel your presence filling up my lungs with oxygen

I take you in

I've died

(Chorus)

Rebirthing now

I wanna live for love wanna live for you and me

(Breathe for the first time now I've come alive somehow)

Rebirthing now

I wanna live my life wanna give you everything

(Breathe for the first time nowI've come alive somehow)

Right now Right now

I lie here lifeless in this cocoon

Shedding my skin cause I'm ready to

I wanna break out

I found a way out

I don't believe that it's gotta be this way

The worst is the waiting

In this womb I'm suffocating

Feel your presenceFilling up my lungs with oxygen

I take you in

I've died

(Chorus)

Tell me when I'm gonna live again

Tell me when I'm gonna breathe you in

Tell me when I'm gonna feel inside

Tell me when I'm gonna feel alive

Tell me when I'm gonna live again

Tell me when this fear will end

Tell me when I'm gonna feel inside

Tell me when I'll feel alive

(Chorus)

Right Now (I've come alive somehow)

Right Now (I've come alive somehow)

Oilers lose after controversial call
Phantom hand pass call denies tying goal as Oilers fall to Stars 3-2

by Marc Ciampa
www.edmontonoilers.com
The Edmonton Oilers were denied the tying goal after a phantom hand pass call in the final seconds whistled the play down. Dallas went on to a 3-2 win Friday night at Rexall Place. Ryan Smyth and Petr Sykora scored for Edmonton in a losing cause.
After Petr Sykora scored with 1:25 left in the game to make it 3-2, the Oilers continued to pour on the pressure. With about ten seconds left, Shawn Horcoff won the draw straight back to Jarret Stoll. Stoll's slapper was stopped by Stars starting netminder Marty Turco but Ales Hemsky swooped in to put home the rebound. It looked as if the Oilers had tied the game but referee Mick McGeough whistled it down, saying that Horcoff had fed a hand pass to Stoll. Replays later showed that Horcoff clearly moved the puck with his stick off the draw which sent the Rexall Place fans into riot mode."It was a blown call on my part," McGeough said after the game. "It was poor judgment on my part. I thought he had his hand on the puck on the faceoff but it was his stick. My judgment was poor on the play."Shawn Horcoff was surprised that the play was whistled down."I couldn't believe when he said it was me," Horcoff said after the game. "It was a clean (faceoff) win. That's a tough call to make from his position on the ice."Oilers head coach Craig MacTavish was visibly upset after the game as a result of the controversial play. "He makes some call from deep in the corner, the linesman is right there on top of it. You'd think if Horcoff hit it with his glove the linesman would have saw it," said MacTavish.

Lupul scores !

Oilers 4, Capitals 0

AP, Oct 29, 2006 EDMONTON, Alberta (AP)

Ryan Smyth had a goal and an assist and Dwayne Roloson stopped 19 shots as the Edmonton Oilers beat the Washington Capitals 4-0 on Saturday night. Fernando Pisani, Joffrey Lupul and Marty Reasoner also scored for the Oilers.

~Jokes~

A woman visited a psychic of some local repute. In a dark and gloomy room, gazing at the Tarot cards laid out before her, the Tarot reader delivered the bad news.

"There is no easy way to say this so I'll just be blunt. Prepare yourself to be a widow. Your husband will die a violent and horrible death this year."

Visibly shaken, the woman stared at the psychic's lined face, then at the single flickering candle, then down at her hands. She took a few deep breaths to compose herself. She simply had to know. She met the Tarot reader's gaze, steadied her voice, and asked, "Will I get away with it?"

My wife and I are watching "Who Wants to be a Millionaire"while we are in bed.

I turned to her and said, "Do you want to have sex ?"

"No." she answered

"Is there a 50 % chance ?"

"No." she answered

"Is that your final answer ?"

"Yes." she replied

then I said "I'd like to call a friend !"

and that's the last thing I remember !

Uncharacteristic

This goal got by Jussi Markkanen and the game got by the Oilers as they lost their 2nd straight by a score of 6-2. Phoenix has been widely critisized for their poor play, but last night the "light bulb" came on. Congrats to Wayne, he may not have to put in his resignation just yet !
