Nice story but this may be a stretch:

He might be. He's just really small, doesn't have the greatest wheels, and isn't strong. He's got fantastic vision, but nobody to pass to. _________________ Bring back the old OTP!

That's your defense of Wellwood? He's small, weak, can't skate and can't show whatever passing skills he may have?  |

Last year he was rolling along putting points on the board before he got hurt. This year? Well, 0 assists in 9 games But if you watch the kid, he makes some marvelous passes that just go to waste on many of the forwards that the Leafs have  _________________ Bring back the old OTP!

I think he needs Domi's ass to bounce a few pucks off of. I actually like the kid too and thought he might play well with Blake. |

Doesn't help Welly that he's a not-so-good skater on a team full of not-so-good skaters, and that he's a playmaker on a team full of guys who can't finish. And I imagine his lackluster speed is made all the more worse from the fact that he's recovering from a groin injury, is he not?
I'm a fan of the kid, but there really isn't a worse team for him to be on right now... |

| what's worse is that it doesn't look like it'll change any time soon. Apart from Steen, Wellwood and Tlusty, there's not much ahead of them or behind them in the depth chart. |

Don't worry, they've got Tucker & Blake locked up long term! _________________ "Oh my God. There she is. Lovely Sally Slater. I should speak to her. But what the hell can I say? Anything that doesn't mention that I masturbate over her memory is probably a good idea."
