For my good friend Claude. And-O's wish that you get canned to come true and you be allowed to go coach in a city where 14 wins and some overtime losses with a very young and injured team will be appreciated. Preferably someplace warm so you can work on that golf game and I can come visit in February
For Bob Gainey balls. Seems his Christmas tree has lots of lights but no balls.
Theo- Santa can you please give this guy a can of confidence? I truly feel that he has the tools to be agood goalie, however the problem now seems to be between his ears.
Souray- Baywatch- The complete DVD Collection
Bonk- Glasses
Ribiero- One way ticket to Aneheim. Failing that, I ask for what the Tin Man wanted in the wizard of Oz. A heart.
Bouillon- stilts
Dagenais- skating lessons in the Tie Domi power skating school
Kovalev- Ligaments (one set only)
Koivu- see Kovalev
Zednick- What the Lion wanted in the Wizard of Oz..A brain
Doug Jarvis- "skin thickening cream". You will need it
Ryder- Linemates
Perez- Patience Santa. He has a long and bright future in this league and needs to remember that
Rick Green- baby powder for that head (if Santa does not come through ask CJ, he has lots)
Rivet- Respect. It is long overdue
Begin- See Rivet
For the team as a whole a truckload of Varethane for Hardwood floors. Seems that they are in dire need of "finish".

A one way ticket to San Jose for Theo, with a one way ticket for BIG JOE to Montreal.
You know, I thought to myself just after the trade if Theo coulda got us Joe. But they got that other goalie there, Nabakov. So it isn't likely (maybe a 0.01% chance.) But, I still feel SJ owes us from the Hacket deal.
Why? Hackett I always thought that the Hackett deal wasn't a bad one?
Plus its rare that a team will go out and trade for a superstar to just trade him off to another team. You'd have to put up alot to get a superstar thats a new arrival in a city. Joe is staying in SJ.
