Farber: Datsyuk Out For Game 3

From Sports Illustrated,

Although Pavel Datsyuk officially is being called a game-time decision, the Red Wings’ star center will miss Game 3 of the Western Conference Final Friday.

More...but no further details on how that confirmation came about.

I’ve said this before, we are a very deep TEAM.

Time for someone (or two, or three, ... ) (Hoss?) to pick-up the difference.

Uncle Mike will adjust. We’ll be fine, right?

ALL ABOARD!!!

The Stress Train is now boarding!

GO WINGS!!!

6 to 12

Sports Illustrated has the scoop on hockey?

That’ll be the day.  Next this story will be picked up by ESPN.

It’s easy for an outlet that doesn’t have a lot of credibility in the sport to just guess here.  If Farber’s wrong, he says his ‘source’ had it wrong and hockey fans go on ignoring SI’s coverage.  If he’s right, his guess pays off and he looks like the guy who got the jump on everybody.

To be clear, I think Datsyuk’s out tonight too, but I’m calling that on gut feeling.  Also, I don’t claim to be a journalist.

Well, Jessie (from Bingo Bango) reported this on her blog.  I am speculating that he will be out for tonight’s game.

I’m watching you, Filppula.  VooX, a double of Jameson’s and a pint of 250 G, please.

No worries - IMHO he only misses one game max.  It will be sore for a few days and he’s playing by Sunday.

Everytime I read these posts a little peice of me dies!

My head says don’t worry we have depth, i look at the scoring leaders and it confirms this. My head also tells me we have experience, these guys have been there before, know how to win and want that feeling again. My head also says that Pav simply hasn’t been producing the goods these playoffs.

mmmm screw you head, we need Pav and like it or not I’m stressed as hell, this is a BIG game tonight, BH win and they are flying Wing win and they are dead simple as.

Hossa step up? the dude has been a ghost so far he’s basically become what everyone said he was prior to the pens cup run, a good reguar season player but no good in the playoffs. My best, Charlie Buckets to the rescue he has heart and freakin golden stick!

6 to 12 bitches RED WINGS ROCK!!!

The year?  I thought so…...

I’ve said this before, we are a very deep TEAM.

And the crowd in front of the bar in the Hasek is just as deep.  Can’t even see VooX.  May need to go directly to the IV drip of rum for this one.  I’ll be in my corner in the back….

I figure that, because they’re up 2-0 they’re willing to let him take the extra time.  If it was 1-1 he’d be playing.  That said, if they win tonight, maybe they let him sit on Sunday, get the extra rest so that he doesn’t have to play till he’s 100%.
