Detroit — Scrub those thoughts of Pavel Datsyuk once again wearing the Red Wings’ jersey out of your mind.

It appears likely Datsyuk is headed back to the KHL in Russia and likely finish his career with his hometown team Avtomobilist Yekaterinburg.

Datsyuk’s agent Dan Milstein said Tuesday he will meet with Datsyuk in the next day or two, and present his client with available options.

But Milstein confirmed there’s a good chance Datsyuk will play for Russian hometown team — something Datsyuk has always wanted to do.
