DatsyukianDekes

I don't believe he really is, hes good but not great imo. he has no 2 way game. He doesn't play on Penalty Kills, he doesn't really do anything defensively, i've never seen someone dive as much as him, he ALWAYS has the puck, he plays more minutes than 95% of forwards in the NHL and hes an all around Crybaby. sure he puts up 100 points a season, but I still prefer Datsyuk over him every day just because I tihnk all around hes a better Hockey player.

Halak also stopped Crosby single handedly also, Crosby went from 15 points in the first five games against Senators to 3 points in 7 games against Montreal. Just shows good players like Z and Halak imo can shut down so called 'Great' players.

Remember the Name

you forgot the part about the Red Wings going on to win the Stanley Cup.

I remember going to the Leafs vs Red Wings last year in November in Toronto. There was more Wing fans in attendance than Leaf fans, I thought it was weird, but Yzerman, Hull ,Robitaille e did get inducted into the HOF, the building errupted when Yzerman was called too, it was amazing.Was still good to see Detroit fans outnumber one of the biggest NHL franchises sadly Detroit lost that game badly, but the HOF inductees made it all worth it.

Datsyuk = abominable snowman

Talbot is a ***** for real, this is almost as ridiculous as when Perry threatened Datsyuk.

I think Toronto should have been apart of one, especially considering they would draw the most money due to the fact they gross the most amount of money by far out of any other teams in the NHL. No surprise at all though that they went with Pittsburgh just because of Crosby, majority of Canadians as it is can't stand Crosby regardless if he is Canadian or not.

I dunno, but last season I seen Ohlund come up with some huge hits, one being on Zetterberg which im sure everyone here remembers as it injured him. Heres just a few vids of massive hits he had last year. Even with the Canuks he has some massive hits also.

personally I think he needs to improve his glove, seems everyone knows thats his weak spot and they just shoot for it, needs to get his glove up there quicker.

I was there that night, I remember when he went down it looked like he was out for a second, he just went stiff. that night was when Yzerman was inducted into the hall of fame, there were more Red Wing fans in attendance than Leaf fans it was awesome.

This is my fav Datsyuk video.

im not denying that, im just talking about this years playoffs, I was very disappointed with a lot of the calls.

The playoffs last season were a joke with all the diving and such, not to mention all the bad calls indirectly called. Nabakov was one of the worst for this and hes a goaltender, he dove against Colorado, Detroit and Chicago when he was barely touched and got the call everytime.

I would say KHL, just because of the money they offering him.

I think people are jumping to conclusions a bit. Bertuzzi played all over the place last year (3rd line and 2nd line I believe) because of injuries, until the last couple weeks. If the Red Wings are healthy I don't see how Bertuzzi can do any worse than 44 points, imo, I think hes capable of hitting 55-60 points with a healthy steady line. If he can play all 82 games on the same line with the same players I think he will form better chemistry and put up some solid points this season. I mean, he didn't play that bad in the playoffs I think he finished with 12 points in 12 games, 4th in scoring forwards.

ahahah.. imagine the possibilities.

No way this is true. Brodeur imo is only as good as his defense (which NJ had some of the best, not necessarily last year) Washington needs defense and a goaltender badly, but I wouldn't trade Semin for Brodeur.

Thanks for the video man, brings back soo many good memories. Just watching it makes me excited for next year, the way D and Z played on the same line was simply amazing, they need to get back on the same line.

RIP, I don't know anything really about him, I wasn't born yet but any coach that coaches Detroit is a winner.
