He is the only guy of power on record endorsing it so if that is what you want to claim it is a fairly awful point and makes the explanation of your avatar non-sense. Have at it man, I have to live by the site rules just like everyone else so I am done with this discussion, keep living in your bubble.
Robert Lang was a superior contributor at the point this decision was being made guys/gals, though he is unlikely to have been in Detroit at all if Fedorov is extended so no we are back to which younger guys money can't happen between Zetterberg and Datsyuk. I can tell you who the franchise was taking in that debate back then.
They seriously considered moving Datsyuk in the summer of 06 after the dismal playoff run. To pretend he was near a protected asset back at this point is revisionist history.
