Wellwood Might Have Found a Home

Monday night, Kyle Wellwood was the bomb.
He scored the first goal of the game, dished out an assist and then fired home the shootout winner as the Winnipeg Jets beat the Florida Panthers, on the road, 4-3.
It was Winnipeg’s fourth win of the season and the goal that got it started just so happened to be Wellwood’s fifth of the year, tops on the Jets.
It Took a Shootout, But Jets Get What They Deserve

Even when the scariest thing on Halloween was their penalty-killing unit, the Winnipeg Jets exorcised their early-season road demons once again and got exactly what they deserved on Monday night: A 4-3 victory over the Florida Panthers in Sunrise.
It wasn’t easy, but with Jets 2.0, nothing ever is.
Six thoughts 10/31/11 Jets 4-3 Panthers (SO)

Being Halloween, the Winnipeg Jets made their fans sit through a bit of a scare, giving up a 2-0 first period lead, forcing themselves to tie it up with 49.9 seconds to go and wait all the way to a shootout before earning two points against the Florida Panthers.
-Jets/Panthers on Monday night means football, right?
SIX THOUGHTS:
-What a pretty goal by Kyle Wellwood to undress Jose Theodore on the shootout winner. He came in with both speed and lateral movement and had the 2002 MVP completely out of the net before tucking the puck in for the winner. Good composure from Wellwood who scored the new-NHL hat-trick: A goal, an assist, and the shootout winner. You could call that a Pavel Datsyuk.

The Jets' third installment of their odyssey around the Eastern U.S. takes them to Sunrise for a date versus the stingy Panthers. Winnipeg has split the first two matches after a pair of games that really couldn't have been more different in score or manner of execution, so if nothing else, I'll be intrigued to see which approach is followed this evening.
