March 26, 2011: CBC's Hockey Night in Canada. Elliotte Friedman's segment 'Inside Hockey' profiles Pavel Datsyuk of the Detroit Red Wings. Originally broadcast on CBC TV.
I grew up following Bobby Orr and I can't imagine not considering him as my all-time favorite. Living in Colorado since 1989, I haven't had much chance to follow Datsyuk. But, given that handicap, I consider him to be at least my honorary next favorite. I admire his hockey IQ, skill, effectiveness and his gentlemanly character. I don't know how he'd do in other sports, but I'm a fan of how specific his skills are to hockey. That makes me more a fan of the game itself. His wizadry at keeping the puck in crowded conditions is especially fascinating. If his skills were more general, such as prodigious strength or blinding speed, then that would still be impressive. But, I like him more due to how specific they are to the game I love.
I'm a fan of Pavel Datsyuk, but it's pretty hard to argue against Crosby as the best player in the game today. Though I would definitely argue for Datsyuk being THE most complete player in the NHL right now, and maybe to ever play in the league.
He is up there, but i wouldn't say that he is a complete player when he can't take a tackle or barely dish one out. similar to Gretzky. Forsberg is the most complete player ever.
@@LorentzHallMusicbro what? He is tough as nails. He has taken hits before and has scored right after. He also has given body checks. Get that nonsense outta here
I love the guy . best hands around and what a funny man to boot. its so great to be a fan of the wings not just because of the success the team has had but also for the class of the guys on the team as well. GO WINGS!!!!
i'm so happy i know russian, so i can watch Pavel's interviews when he is more comfortable. He is hilarious man and so humble.
My fav player hands down!!
"It's just; Work, Done, Do my Stuff" Well said Pasha!
Datsyuk or Crosby as best player? Datsyuk.
you poosh, you poosh, you poooosh
Да уж... Английский у Павла такой ужасный, что страшно даже мне.)))

datsyuks the greatest
I feel like flagging this video as inappropriate due to how many players he undresses in these clips.
Most skilled player I’ve ever seen . He is sick

Datsyuk '07-'08 season is better than any Crosby has produced.

@@LorentzHallMusic take a tackle? what does that mean?

He's such a sweetheart
this is my all time favorite forward....
Early 2000s-Early 2010s HNIC was so golden, and was so much better than what Sportsnet made it into.
i love datsyuk.
Even if this guy reaches the 40s...He is still going to be a great player of 30 goals!
Oh my fucking God he is priceless.
school in ekatirinburg, every summer
Corey Perry downvoted 4 times after Pavel kicked his ass
