How did Christmas creep up so fast?

I saw the photos from the Canadians, the players visiting the children's hospitals in Montreal, as they do every year, something that Jean Beliveau started.

And I thought, my goodness, that means Christmas is around.

I should say in those pictures, I'm not sure I've seen this done before, but Alex Carrier had the kids sign his jersey, which I thought was a fabulous idea.

Yeah.

Which they appreciate, but going one step further.

Yeah.

No, great.

I like that.
