Looks as though all that hard work showing up early by Kyle Wellwood might have been smoke and mirrors...
Coach Alain Vigneault called out the waiver pickup, questioning his desire and commitment level, before a game has even been played. It's always a tricky thing, when a coach publicly calls out a player to try and motivate them. Some respond, others retreat further. Wellwood showed in Junior he can score, but since making the NHL has yet to really bust out the way some feel he could. You have to think for guys like Cody Hodgson and Micheal Grabner, this is a good sign, as that is another spot up for grabs (no pun intended). Wellwood will have to really turn it up, or it's gonna be a long cold winter in Winnipeg.
