Gnredwing 10 Report post Posted June 1, 2009 I am very happy about the Red Wings being up 2-0 going into Pittsburgh. Yet at the same time I would be a lot more comfortable if Datsyuk will be back for either game 3 or 4. Anyone wanna share their thoughts on when he will be back. You think theres any chance he will be back for game 3? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flip 5 Report post Posted June 1, 2009 I can almost guarantee it. Before Game 1, Dreger said the only thing he was lacking was his "explosiveness." There are no broken bones in the foot, which means it's probably a painful contusion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedWingNut78 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2009 Would Dats be healthy enough to play through a physical series, and are the Wings willing to risk worstening the injury? Would he be able to contribute physically as he had throughout these playoffs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are no broken bones in the foot, which means it's probably a painful contusion. X-rays showed there was no broken bones, but that was last week, and he still hasn't returned. I wouldn't be so sure he'll play. Not that I'm counting him out, I'm just not sure he's ready yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kira 451 Report post Posted June 1, 2009 I hope with all my heart he comes back for the next game, but on the other hand I don't want him to think he has to rush back before the injury is healed totally. So whatever happens I will understand. But that doesn't negate the fact that I miss him something awful. There are times and plays where I think, "Pasha would have had that puck and been gone."

Icesurfer 75 Report post Posted June 1, 2009 I just want Pav healthy before he returns so he doesn't aggravate the injury. I think the Wings can afford to keep him out one more game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
titanium2 867 Report post Posted June 1, 2009 He's going to aggravate the injury no matter what if he plays. He just can't do so that would result in any long-term damage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LidstromIsASuperhero 29 Report post Posted June 1, 2009 If he can manage to play without causing long term damage or reaggravating severely enough to where he misses the next game, I say by all means we should play him. We cannot afford to give the Penguins any breathing room or momentum whatsoever. They could be a very dangerous team to give that to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zetterling 16 Report post Posted June 1, 2009 He will be back. He might have a bruised bone in his foot, but he will be back for game 3. He's just waiting until he knows he can be effective. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jake Ryan 1 Report post Posted June 1, 2009 He will be back. He might have a bruised bone in his foot, but he will be back for game 3. He's just waiting until he knows he can be effective. This is accurate, I believe. He doesn't want to go out there and be 50%. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Noodle 39 14 Report post Posted June 1, 2009 I hope he is able to play game 3 and we go up 3-0! I think his addition might help that but who would we sit? I'm thinking Leino.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
