Nov 6 (Reuters) - Canadian pipeline operator TC Energy ( TRP )

missed estimates for third-quarter profit on Thursday,

hurt by weakness in its U.S. operations and in the power and

energy solutions business.

On an adjusted basis, the Calgary-based company earned 77

Canadian cents per share for the three months ended September

30, compared with analysts' average expectation of 80 Canadian

cents, according to data compiled by LSEG.
