Merry Christmas Baby

Monday December 24, 3:00 PM

Here's hoping these fine folks find what they're looking for under the Christmas tree (and you too):

Cristobal Huet-a thank you note with his parting gift

Michael Ryder-two weeks in Hamilton

Saku Koivu-a badly swollen middle finger

Guy Carbonneau-Brenden Morrow (oh wait...)

NHL Officials-a muzzle for Guy Carbonneau

Bob Gainey-Size and strength down the middle

Michel Therrien-a safety net

PJ Stock-An English/French dictionary

Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens et al-lie detector tests

Bud Selig-a pink slip

Washington Nationals-a fire; without the sale

Donald Fehr-Bah, humbug!

Michael Vick- a cell full of rabid rottweilers

Bill Belichik-a '72 Dolphins dartboard

Anthony Calvillo-a healthy family

Jim Popp-a Jack Todd whoopi cushion

Jack Todd-empathy, heart, soul & a baby seat in Popp's hummer

The Green Room-an Open for Business sign

Hurley's, Irish Embassy, Ye Olde Orchard, McKibbin's, Champs & Vargas-a very very Green Christmas

And from a very creative listener:

The following are a few of the gifts santa plans to hand to the HABS:

Francis Bouillon: 2 inch lifts.
Michael Ryder: A soccer net.
Andrei Markov: "Searching for Bobby Orr" by Steven Brunt.
Mike Komisarek: Darcy Tucker with his head down.
Christopher Higgins: 2 highly trained dobermann pinschers, Zeus and Apollo (A.K.A. "The Lads").
Tom Kostopoulos: A weekend with Bob Probert.
Andrei Kostitsyn: An invitation to Paul Maurice's house.
Maxim Lapierre: A double wide "tempo" for his Hummer. (St-Leonard style).
Sergei Kostitsyn: A fake ID card.
Saku Koivu: Subscription to the Journal de Montreal.
Patrice Brisebois: Already got his present... (Christmas was in July for Pat this year!)
Carey Price: 2 cases of REDBULL!
Guy Carbonneau: A perpetual road trip.
Doug Jarvis: A day off. (FINALLY!)
Bob Gainey: Alexander Ovechkin... or a win on Dec 23.

The rest get a $10 gift certificate to the Barfly. Thanks for all the good work.
