I didnt think that i would never ever see a type of player like that again i mean you obviously knew he was very special but here we are decades later and still no one is even close to that kind of talent, creativity and skill level and by the looks of it, probably never will either. awood40 has great video that you just cant get enough of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlbRIUDJTEc .
I will never be too upset about him leaving, the way we pissed on him in the later stages of his career was just beyond horrible, forcing him to play with Cleary with one knee, a washed up Bertuzzi, Justin Abdelkaders ass i mean talk about wasted talent. Kinda got reminded of it again when i watched Larkin at the all-star game playing with Marner how Datsyuk looked when he got back to the KHL and played with Kovalchuk like he was actually having fun again playing with elite talent. You can blame Holland for multiple things but never finding a shiny toy for Datsyuk like Penguins did with Guentzel and Rust for Crosby will always sting.
