Going into this season I had the mentality of just watching and enjoying Datsyuk play his game. The state of the team as it sits today is pretty much exactly what I expected from this roster, so I told myself to just enjoy Datsyuk's game. I pretty much did the same thing with Holmstrom and Lidstrom's play the last 2 seasons.
Datsyuk is truly a marvel to watch and whatever he decides to do after his current contract is up I won't begrudge him either way. Of course, I'd love to see him sign on for an additional 2 years but I understand the supposed reasoning if he doesn't. Also, I don't think Datsyuk is one of those players that you move in order to get some compensation for him. However, if he pulls a Sundin (tells the team not move him, I'd like to stay and then signs with another NHL team in the offseason) THAT would be a huge slap to the face of the organization and I would understand some very harsh feelings towards him. Don't think that will happen though.
So, I will continue to marvel at his game for the next season and a half, hope that he decides to stay a little longer, and wish him luck and good fortune if he decides not to.
