C Kyle Wellwood had one of his better games in a so far disappointing season against Colorado on Friday night, picking up an assist for just his second point of the season and winning 12 of 16 faceoffs. But his brief three-game stint on the second line ended with the return of top-line winger Daniel Sedin on Sunday against Chicago, dropping Wellwood back down to the third line. The good news is that with the Canucks finally getting close to complete healthy up front, Wellwood actually has decent linemates on the third unit in Steve Bernier and Jannik Hansen, a rarity early this season.
