Detroit – Could Pavel Datsyuk return to the NHL?
Some things are falling into place that make that a possibility.
Datsyuk, 41 when the NHL season begins, announced Tuesday night on Twitter he is not returning to SKA St. Petersburg of the Russia-based Kontinental Hockey League, after signing a one-year contract extension with the team in April 2018.
With that news – following increasing speculation since before the end of the NHL season – there’s reason to believe Datsyuk wants to return to North America.
