oh and wasn't that the game that he got rocked lost a tooth and chipped another, then got 5 stitches above the eye and stayed in the game he got us 8 PP minutes and 2 pts and setting up the game winner.. and was 7 - 0 in face offs?  |
Exactly.
Players like Wellwood are the players you NEED to win a cup, -period-
sure he may not be a physical speciman, but i bet you this year he's going to come to camp in better shape then last, and there will not be all the stupid commentary on his weight etc.
Wellwood has intangibles that other players do not bring to the team, You can run a ride a bike for 5 hours a day, but you cant teach hands like he has, you dont teach the coordination and anticipation he uses in his little face-off move
He stepped it up in the playoffs, and he is obviously a player who knows that another gear has to be found in the most desperate of times, a Canadian who plays like this is always welcome on my team because they are undervalued and overperform.
