The Canucks Write-In Campaign Ballot

The All Star Ballots are up and ready—and Canucks fans will see some familiar names: Roberto Luongo, Daniel Sedin and Henrik Sedin. All fine choices normally, though it’s a good thing voting doesn’t begin and end this week.
Meanwhile, may I be the first to suggest a write-in campaign for Kyle Wellwood?
Granted, he’s no Rory Fitzpatrick, but he fits neatly into that category of insane-long-shots that Canucks fans so love to embrace—even if CBC’s Scott Morrison had no sense of humor about it.
C’mon… a Vote for the Wood! campaign has potential.

Subway… Damn, there’s so much opportunity for comic entertainment in a Wellwood campaign.
Vote for the Wood!

By the way, where is your faith? If Woody keeps this up he shouldn’t be considered a long shot. He’s better than the damned Sedins right now for peter’s sakes!
Have you guys all but forgotten about Demitra as well? I don’t miss him right now.

Well, I have faith… but I don’t know that we have a lot of company. Besides, he’s become a bit more ‘mainstream’ a choice since that Nashville game.
