Pavel Datsyuk is still a magical player. Slowed by injuries at the start of the year that kept him out of the Detroit Red Wings lineup, Datsyuk has returned and is starting to hit his stride.
Datsyuk has scored goals in each of his last two games, and when he put the puck in the net past Jonas Gustavsson of the Boston Bruins Wednesday night, it was the 300th goal of his spectacular career. Datsyuk is a magician with the puck, and he is constantly creating on the ice. He has an array of moves that allow him to get open in the prime scoring areas, but his best attribute is his ability to set up his teammates.
