Amy opens the hour with a holiday themed hypothetical to try and lift some spirits. Alex and Amy then go on to try and compare Barclay and Gritty, because somehow that works? Alex tries to follow up on Amy's hypothetical game, but then realizes that his question is too difficult to pose for the Blues season so far, maybe he ate too many cookies. United States Hockey Hall of Famer Red Berenson joins the program prior to being honored by the Blues on December 29th to discuss his career as both a player and as a legendary head coach of the Michigan Wolverines. The two close the show as usual with "What's Up With That?" discussing topics from Elias Peterson's fast start to the Blues having to face off against a large slew of the Eastern Conference over the next couple of months.
