I know that Santa didn't put the start of the hockey season in any of our stockings, but I'm pretty sure that he put extra coal in Gary Bettman and Bill Daly's. Here's to a Merry Christmas and a happy holiday season, hockey or no. We hope that you spend it around family, friends, and cold adult beverages.

No one light their Christmas tree on fire, ok?

Also, since the lockout's deprived us of fun greetings from the Blues this year, here's Jaroslav Halak and some other guys wishing everyone a happy holiday season.

For some extra Christmas fun, check out the comment section. I suggest the plug-in that turns everything into "herp derp." Actually, I just suggest that for every video on YouTube. And there's your Christmas present. Enjoy!
