What really irks me is that despite his contributions, people still can't get past the fitness issue and some fans will always have a misconception with the way hockey works. Such as:

I used to play hockey so I know what you mean, the two greatest players ever were never really muscular, Gretzky was skinny and Lemieux didn't have much muscle mass, but both where dedicated to training. I think why some ppl rag on Wellwood so much is that while its fine not to be jacked up, its his attitude about training, he just refuses to because its too much effort. He is a pretty skilled hockey player but imagine how much better he'd be if his cardio was better or he put on a bit of muscle, the potential is there just not the effort. He still is a very skilled player tho.
hahaha oh and while Raymond maybe fit, if anyone has seen him in person, he is tiny lol. Now he needs to hit the weight room and gain some strength so he won't keep getting knocked down.
