Dats will live in the Yzerman’s basement...He only wants to hookup with one of the Yzerman girls :lol:

I thought that the master plan, was to have Lidstrom's sons breed with Yzerman's daughters, and make us plenty of "Perfect Red Wings". 

 

And just by coincidence, Datsyuk's house, which has been for sale or rent, since Summer of 2015, had it's listing pulled at the end of March. And, it's still fully furnished, so all he has to do is bring a suitcase or two, and unpack.

Isn’t his daughter getting to the age of college now? 

University of Michigan is top notch.

His youngest, Sophia, just finished her second year at U of M. His middle daughter, Maria, is finishing her Junior year at BU. And Isabella, his oldest, already graduated from U of M, and is working on her Masters, at USC(?). Maybe it's UCLA, can't quite remember.

It's hard to believe that that little girl he had out on the ice with him in '97, is now 25. Amazing how time flies.

Plans have changed...Millennial boys are more interested in their Iphones than girls.

I still remember watching Yzerman's jersey retirement...All 3 of them looked pretty bored.

Ummm,  we have a team in which Nielsen,  De La Rose,  and Glendening all took regular shifts  at center last year and we don't have a spot for Datsyuk?  Lol.   Deplorables. 

Nielsen is probably on the same level as Datsyuk at this point in their respective careers. As most of us have already mentioned though, if we can get rid of Nielsen and his 3 years, $5.25M contract, and sign Datsyuk for one year, it would be a worthy tradeoff. de la Rose will likely be on LTIR, but even if he is healthy, he shouldn't be on the team next season. Glendening is a good shut-down 4th line center, a role I doubt Datsyuk would be capable of filling at this point in his career...

Larkin, Mantha, Athanasiou, Bertuzzi, Nielsen, Helm, Abdelkader, Glendening are the only real "locks" on the team going into next season. Hirose, Rasmussen, Veleno, Zadina, Svechnikov and Ehn all have a shot. Again, if we can trade Nielsen, I'd be all for one last year of Datsyuk, but for me, I'd just assume play the kids than bring back a 41 year old Datsyuk...

IF Datsyuk were to come back, what would our lineup look like?...

Bertuzzi - Larkin - Mantha

Athanasiou - Datsyuk - Zadina

Hirose - Nielsen - Rasmussen

Abdelkader - Glendening - Helm

Turgeon / Ehn

Veleno and Svechnikov start in GR.

I guess I don't hate it... I'm completely impartial to Datsyuk coming back. If he does, cool. If he doesn't, cool...

I could see Dats racking up 40 assists, or more with guys like AA (breakout speed), and Zads (his shot) on his line along with getting pp time.

I was thinking he had another year left. What does that contract look like?

Probably an overpayment, tbh. Which is why I'm not all that interested in him. But maybe Yzerman could do some Jedi mind trick s*** or something.
