The official Pavel Datsyuk apology thread.

[Steve Rucchin 0]

One of two things will happen...

1. Datsyuk is playing with a serious injury which will be revealed either after the Wings get bounced tomorrow or after the playoffs.

2. Datsyuk has a multiple point game seven and the bandwagoneers all try to jump back on.

Either way:

s*** happens.

And the second he produces you'll be all over him again. Same thing happened with Osgood.

Because Osgood, like your homeboy Fedorov, knows which games matter and which don't.

its not that big of a deal to me

He doesn't look like he's been troubled by an injury to me. It looks like he isn't really confident when he shoots, and he's sometimes overworking situations.

I really hope we get by the Ducks, because I think he could have an absolutely huge series against Chicago.

Crap, I thought this was a thread started by Pavel to appolgize to us for not showing up this year against the ducks.

I have to say and I am trying hard not to be a homer but I honestly felt Datsyuk was the best or close to on the ice last night. I think he has looked okay through the series but production is power, he has had a ton of chances but the bounces are not going his way right now. OP I hope your right but I definitly stand by my boy Dats. I am a bit of a homer for the 13!

"Hey, what happens if we don't let Datsyuk dangle?"

"Uh, he can't produce?"

What happens when you stick Pronger/Neidermayer on Dats like glue?

This is really a surprise to you guys?

He can still pass and make plays, but a lot of his fantastic play that most people notice comes from his dangle play.
