Ducks @ Sharks (KDOC, 7:30 p.m.) Didn't these guys just play each other a couple days ago? Are there only 3 or 4 teams in the NHL?

"Elf" (CBS, 8:00 p.m.) JIT for Xmas, Will Ferrell's neo-classic
"It's A Wonderful Life" (NBC, 8:00 p.m.) You will feel even more suicical than Jimmy Stewart's character after suffering through an excruciatingly over-commercialized 3-hour presentation of this battered classic.

"MAD TV" (Fox, 11:00 p.m.) Jeff Probst in a holiday-themed show complete with "Songs from 'Survivor'"
