I love his reply to that comment by that idiot Healy
Great interview. How could any hockey fan not love this guy? Easily one of my absolute favourite players in the game.
What’s your favorite hockey trick?
“To score a goal.
“No. To give an assist.”
You think that every assist is a trick?
“Maybe not every. But there are so many assists that come out so good that they look like tricks.”
Right there. Changed his mind from scoring a goal to making an assist.
I love hockey players that love making an assist.
Datsyuk is so cool.
"Cooler than the other side of the pillow"
Henrik Zetterberg was named team captain this season. How did he transition to being the captain?
“How? He cut out the letter “C” and stitched it on to his jersey, that’s how."
If I could have only one beer with anyone in the NHL, it would be Datsyuk.
Fantastic interview from a fantastic individual and player. Just awesome.

yeah the whole interview is hilarious, he just comes across as such a modest, classy guy but at the same time with a good sense of humor
the fact that it is 25 mins long says all that needs to be said, him and Sid are easily the most dangerous guys in the league to have the puck on their stick
"my passport says Im 35, but on the ice you still get punched in the face"
LOL
love datsyuk. my favorite player last two seasons, absolute human highlight reel and hilarious guy to boot.
