Pavel Datsyuk's status for tonight's Game Three between the Red Wings and Blackhawks remains uncertain. He has not practiced since blocking a shot with his foot in Game Two.
Should Datsyuk be unable to play, Ville Leino will make his first appearance of the postseason.
The Wings are already making one lineup change, bringing in Kirk Maltby to replace Justin Abdelkader.
Officially announced that Datsyuk is out. Leino is in.
Edit: More specifically, Leino comes on to the fourth line. It's Filppula jumping up to the first line in Datsyuk's place.
I heard something today on NHL live about Cheli and Coach Babcock however, I did not hear the full story. Anyone else have any comments?
Big save there....
Ozzie comes up pretty big on the odd-man rush by Chicago.

Jeremy Roenick said Babcock doesn't like Chelios or Americans. Babcock said his kids are American so that's a load of bull. Cheli said JR is just talking sh*t.
Chicago with the first power play. What a surprise.
Of f*cking course.
f*ck. Sharp tips it.
Two feet in the crease. Just saying.
Oh god.
Wings need to sustain some pressure.....
Holy christ.
Kronner kept his elbow down. That's supposedly clean.
Wow I thought, Anaheim were good actors. If hes that hurt why is he still on the bench???
f*cking hell. Havlat got hit by a number 55 freight train. Clean hit. No way a misconduct. The puck was right there. f*ck off.
Bullsh*t call. I'm close to turning this off.
That was a clean hit, no elbows, thats why you keep your head up. 5 minutes....Jeez...
Phew. Thought that was game over for sure. But still could be.
are we back in ANAHEIM!? WTF REFS
And another penalty coming. That makes 11 power play minutes for Chicago called, none for Detroit.
Another penalty, I quess the Wings are going to the entire game down a man......
Just when you thought it was safe to go even strength................
can someone make a gif out of that hit?
At least they're only 2 down.
can someone make a gif out of that hit?
No gif but video coming up

No gif but video coming up
sweet, i can do the rest
are you f**king kidding me they kicked Kronner for that hit?? that's ridiculous sorry just got home and saw that
the vs guy was saying...."give the ref the benefit of the doubt", "maybe he couldn't SEE the puck".......im tired of these blind refs refereeing games
Well, this game could definitely be better. I still have hope.
Well... The first period was bullsh*t. Let's get it back in the second!
I stand corrected. Well, there's still hope, it's just on the backburner right now. Hahaha.
Well, this game wasn't going to be a win anyway.
f*ck
Game over.
Is that true, is Kromwell gone for the game??? So many things wrong with that.
If any team in the NHL can win a game like this, it is the Wings.
I agree they can come back. I just don't think they will. Not tonight.
Holy sh*t, a call against Chicago.
Score here and it's a game.
So much for that.
Wow, another powerplay! I don't believe it.
Well, they picked it up a little bit.
From my sister's friend:
" A game misconduct? Jeeze - at least it's good to know you're going to lose this series. Why not call a "I know we can't win and we're little babies" penalty. Stupid Chicago."
Had to score on that powerplay to have any chance.
There's my hope! <3
Thank god, there's one.
Finally. Here we go!
Still alive, mother bitches!
MORE HOPE! HAHAHA YES.
f*ck yeah!
The Blackhawks have been on their heels the last several minutes.
