MidMichSteve 1,115 Report post Posted May 13, 2011 I heard that Russia left a roster spot open in case Datsyuk became available. I would hope he doesn't go and take the time to let his wrist heal. Has anybody heard anything? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

atodaso 279 Report post Posted May 13, 2011 the tournament is almost over. he's not gonna go over there to play one (meaningless) game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cevari 68 Report post Posted May 13, 2011 They're playing the bronze game on Sunday. I very much doubt Dats would fly to Slovakia to play one relatively meaningless game while heavily jetlagged and injured. I really hope he doesn't in any case, some bastards gonna hit him on the wrists for sure if he goes... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MGreenberg 105 Report post Posted May 14, 2011 Forgot about the Bronze game but yeah, would be stupid for him to play in a pointless game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kira 451 Report post Posted May 14, 2011 I think if I were him, I'd take some time off and get healed. A sprained wrist is not worth aggravating just for one meaningless game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Save The Octopus Report post Posted May 14, 2011 (edited) Someone on Reddit posted a picture with Datsyuk and said that he was back in Detroit already so I doubt he is going over to play. Edited May 14, 2011 by Save The Octopus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
