1. There were some wild rumours that Pavel Datsyuk is coming back to Detroit for 2018-19. Dan Milstein, his agent, says that is not true.
Wait, what?
I haven’t read anything about this from anywhere. This one was out of left field for sure. Would Red Wings fans welcome back Datsyuk with open arms? Are there any hard feelings out there with fans about how he left the team?
Even at his age, he’s talented as hell still and I’d welcome that with open arms to the Wings roster. However, I think I’d only want him back on 1-year contracts every season similar to what Nicklas Lidstrom did at the end of his career.
