In hurry or in a hurry

Hi,

I looked up my dictionary and found out that hurry in uncountable, so should we say, " we are in hurry?" or "we are in a hurry to see the Canucks' game?" Did i also use the article and appostrphe correctly?

Thanks,

Hi.
Say "in a hurry."

I wouldn't use an apostrophe at all - use the noun as an adjective, rather than showing possession.

Hi

Well, I have always known, that we say "in a hurry" not "in hurry"
