Olympic champion Pavel Datsyuk is the greatest hockey player, at the end of his career, the spirit must become the manager of one of the clubs, like Ilya Kovalchuk or Alexander Semin, then Russian hockey will develop, the two-time Olympic champion told Alexander Kojevnikov .
Earlier Thursday, Datsyuk announced on that he was considering announcing his retirement as a hockey player.
– It’s a pity, of course, that he’s finished. The older he was, the more injuries he had. The fans loved him, they always treated him well. The end of a career is the life of every athlete, and Pavel has lived a great life in hockey. People will remember him for a long time. There aren’t many people like that in hockey. God forbid he ended up in hockey after his career ended. Datsyuk knows everything about hockey, these people should stay there. He must command the clubs, like Kovalchuk, Semin. And then our hockey will develop. Look at the NHL where legends rule the clubs.
The most vivid memory is winning the Olympics, followed by winning the Stanley Cup. Datsyuk is the greatest player, and let someone who says he isn’t throw a stone at me,” Kozhevnikov told .
Datsyuk is 43 years old, from 2019 to 2021 he played for Avtomobilist Yekaterinburg. The striker is an Olympic champion, double Stanley Cup winner with Detroit, world champion, Gagarin Cup winner with SKA St. Petersburg. Datsyuk missed the 2021/22 season.
