The return of Henrik Zetterberg

[TimoneX]

I remember legitimately arguing with someone like a week ago that Zetterberg is no longer our second best player. Hilarious.

Right. Quite often he's our best player. Guy is still a beast that can take over a game. Even a game with Stamkos, Johnson, and Hedman in it.

Seems like Z always plays his best hockey with Datsyuk out.

Yeah one could get that feeling.

Z always seems to make his linemates better and thrive when trusted to do so, he's manned so many different top lines now with equal success that I've lost count. With Nyquist & Abby, Larkin & Abby, different combos of Franzen, Homer, Filppula and Hudler etc. Even Brunner. They just always seem to work.

He's probably having some of his most fun of his career playing with Larkin and a much improved Abby.
