Latest news is he will NOT play tomorrow night as planned....Yahoo does not say there has been any type of setback, but phrases it as the "Red Wings are hoping Datsyuk will go on Friday".

I activated him obviously as soon as he came off IR as I'm sure many others did as well...and now it appears it will be several more days before we see him play

Pavel Datsyuk (hand) has pushed back his return date to Friday. "Still can't shoot 100 percent," said Datsyuk. "It bothers me a little bit. (I'm) just not ready. I hope the two days will help me."

What was the nature of his injury again? I forgot and he might be available in my pool, I'd like to know how healthy he'll be down the stretch.

broken hand...its supposed to be all healed now but I'm guessing its still sore and hurting him a bit when he tries to shoot and dangle. Hopefully he'll be able to play sometime this week...even at 75% Dats is worth more than most forwards If he's availabl in your league I'd be grabbing him post haste
