Pavel Datsyuk: I was hoping to take part in drinking and singing challenges

Detroit Red Wings two-way forward Pavel Datsyuk told Russian newspaper Sovetsky sport about his participation in the SuperSkills competition during the NHL’s All-Star weekend in Ottawa.

«Unfortunately, I couldn’t think of an original move during the Breakaway challenge. And Lundqvist performed really well.»

«Were you disappointed?»

«To be honest, I was. But I didn’t have to do much. I wanted to take part in other competitions, such as «Best Drinker» or «Best Singer», but for some reason they never happened.»
