The time line is too quick for it to be in response to the winterfell announcement. If I remember correctly, he did the winterfell speech, and immediately after it, there was the Wun Wun incident.
Yea that is pretty much how it went down but the Wun Wun incident was an accidental discraction more than a critical event.
Bowen who leads the stabbings was critical of things like the wildlings because they didn't have enough food to feed them, he didn't like Jon allowing new Watch members taking their vows beyond the wall. He finally broke though when Jon's reads the Pink letter aloud. I don't think Bowen wanted to kill Jon but he was pretty clear that taking the Watch to Winterfell was treason in his eyes.
