Another month done, and boy can I say I am so glad it finally end. What a bad month this was for the Vancouver Canucks. We had 13 games this month and we end up with a 4-5-4 record, which was very unacceptable!
Things started out great with the Pavel Bure night as the Canucks beat the Leafs 4-0. But on that California road trip that was where all the disaster began. The Canucks had a good start, losing in a shootout to Phoenix and finally beat the San Jose Sharks. But after that, things just went bad, losing 5 in a row before winning 1 and then lose 2 again.
The worst part is that Vancouver actually outplayed the opposition in those games but can't score. Scoring has been awful this month, way too many games where they only scored 1 goal and all resulted in a loss. Their record right now is 13-10-5. Not the best start but there are still time left, however they have to start scoring more and play better in front of Luongo. Bad coverage usually kills this team and Torts have to let the boys know.
Nothing comes easy and the Canucks have to play their game and not worry about anything else!

Vancouver Canucks Regular Season (October) Review
The Vancouver Canucks began their season in the month of October in 2013, as they brought in some new faces such as new head coach John Tortorella and new players, Mike Santorelli, Brad Richardson, and Yannick Weber. The Canucks finished the month of October with a shocking record of 9-5-1. I was totally surprised but happy how this month has gone. Typically, October has always been an average month for this team, but things change this year.
Although many injuries occurred, Alex Burrows was injured for a period of time before he came back, forward Jannick Hansen, Dale Weise and David Booth are all out due to injuries. It is still early however, but hopefully everyone comes back soon!
The Canucks have improved on the penalty kill by a mile this season so far under the new coaching system of John Tortorella. However, the powerplay has been extremely poor. I just believe the Canucks need to shoot the puck more on the PP and need a better way to entry. Quite honestly I am not a fan of the drop pass especially when they gain the zone. It is very frustrating to see the puck gets taken away right when the drop pass occurs in the offensive zone. But nonetheless it has been a good month, one thing I would like to see is the Canucks being able to beat good teams. Majority of the wins this month has been against teams with losing record.

TVB Dramas Review: A Great Way To Care II (仁心解碼 II )
Well it sure has been a while since I have completed another series of drama. I took a huge break because I could not find any good dramas to watch until this show.
Anyways, this is the second series of A Great Way To Care, while I didn't watch the first series as I am known for that. I personally like this show due to because it deals with life, Christ and criminal cases. This shows involves, Tavia Yeung, Alex Fong, Ben Wong, Yoyo Mung, Aimee Chan and Edwin Siu. Tavia is a cop with Ben Wong and they are also couple. As their relationship develops, Tavia's past slowly to reappear on her mind based on how she was an orphan after her father had committed murder against people who deserved to be killed. Therefore this brainwashed her and leads her to do the same thing which eventually causes her downfall and she committed suicide. Everybody tried to help her but could not.
Alex Fong and Yoyo Mung are co-workers in the Department of Psychiatry and they eventually become couples because of YoYos desire to have a baby. While she denied Alex's attempt first to take care of her and the baby, they eventually end up together.
Aimee Chan and Edwin Siu were former classmates studying abroad and are friends. Their first attempt to date fell short when Edwin was cheating on her with another coworker Christine Kuo. Eventually they end up together again based on destiny, if Edwin is able to locate Aimee's missing brother which he successfully accomplished.
Overall, this show really isn't bad at all. Teaches you a lot about life and influences. I feel like I can relate myself in some of the situations, based on my hatred personality against certain things.

TVB Drama Review: Friendly Fire ( 法網狙擊 )
Well I can't believe it took me this long to finally start blogging about this show! Personally I love it which is why I don't know why its taking me forever to blog this but there it is.
This show features, Michael Tse, Tavia Yeung who are lawyers and Sammy Leung and Sharon Chan who are cops.
Michael and Tavia are couples and have been dating for quite a period of time and often would work together to win cases. Though later they broke up when Tavia rejected a major surprising proposal from Michael because of her family past which she does not want to see happening again. They would often argue later with disagreements based on perspective differences. While her friend, Louis Yeun who is a doctor tries to cheer her up and get them to re-unite. Until Michael and Tavia both have encountered a common enemy which brought them to be united again.
Sammy and Sharon are both cops and they first met when both happened to be targeting the same suspect. She would publicly humiliate him by forcing him to sexually assault her. Later Sharon would transfer to the group of where Sammy leads and they would often work together and soon their relationship develops. Later in the end they end up together at the airport.
The major antagonist in the show was the siblings of Alice Chan and Ronan Pak. It all began when Ronan Pak raped one of Tavia's students, Samantha Ko. Tavia and Michael vowed to win the case to give him permanent sentence. Though Alice Chan vowed to have her brother save at the cost of anything, therefore she went to Derek Kwok, who is also a lawyer and an arch rival of Michael Tse. Though Derek Kwok was able to win the case for the siblings and Alice and him began to build up a relationship which would all come to an end when Michael and Sammy's brother was hit the car that Alice drove, because he was filming her with another person that later would be killed by Derek himself. They were discussing some illegal business which was what freaked Alice over. To save herself, Alice told the police that Derek had killed the other person she was talking business with, in order to save herself but because of the father's death, Michael and Sammy had to do something about it. They kept bugging and harassing her, and even Samantha helped by crashing their business presentation to say bad things about them so everyone will know what they really are. Eventually Michael Tse was able to get her to speak the truth and record it when they were inside the room arguing and also the evidence in her car with the sands where the murdering took place. Which eventually got her into a long term sentence to jail, leaving her brother alone.
At last everyone gets back to their normal life.

TVB Drama Review: Missing You ( 幸福摩天輪 )

Everybody except for Vincci works for the Yang Ming Federation, a company that is specified for helping people find their lost loved ones. Usually Linda and Jason work together while Calvin and Cilla are paired together. Linda and Jason's relationship would become deeper as the show goes on, which eventually triggered the breaking up between Jason and Lin Xia Wei, as she was mislead by Matt Yeung ( Marcus ), one of her colleagues that Linda and her boyfriend were cheating on her, though it wasn't the case.
Since this show features the five characters except Vincci to be helping people find their lost loved ones. This eventually came to the heart of Jason where one day, his eventual younger sister to their office to look for her lost brother. Eventually he confessed that he was the one and by then, his mother was very ill. Though in her past, she had to leave him at Ocean Park waiting in line to play the Ferris Wheel, but because of family problems he was left behind and he had to taken care of himself. Her hand holding the Ferris Wheel indicates it.
This lead to the suspicion of his father so he went to look for him. He received picture of his high school graduation photo and went to the library and found evidence that KK Cheung, ( a former judge that helped him with one of his case ) and the person's house that he recently visits after Linda's brother apologized for causing so many problems on his son, Sam. Though his wife told a lie and told Jason not to reveal anything until she passes away with her cancer lie which eventually would be broken by Linda.
Until the day of the confession, she was very ill and had to do operation but KK won't forgive her for the lie she made. Thanks to Jason himself for telling his father that everyone should always deserve a second chance, he gave in.
By the end of the show, Linda was going to Australia with her brother for his studies, but Jason persuade her not to leave and even climbed on to the traffic light pole to confess his love for her which then they end up together and eventually go back to their original life style.
Ratings: Awesomeness: 7/10. Moral: 9/10.
