But were there any decent soviet formations or leaders left in Far East December 1941?
_
The Far East Front in December of 1941 had not be altered in any sunstansive form from the start of the War. Stalin was still unsure of Japan's intentions (for that matter he wasn't sure of U.S. intentions, paranoia is like that). Even when the forces began to be moved from the East they came mostly from the Central Asia Military District and from Stavka reserves.
The 1st, 2nd, & 25th Armies were in the Far East throughout the war (not sure about the 15th Army). This represented more than enough forces to crush any Japanese invasion.
There are tons of threads on this subject here.
