Pavel Datsyuk just turned 39-years-old less than a couple of months ago and The Magic Man still has plenty of tricks up his sleeve.
SKA Saint Petersburg went head-to-head with Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod on Saturday night and Datsyuk made a great heads-up play midway through the third period as he caught the goalie snoozing and found the back of the net for his second goal of the season.
Datsyuk’s goal was a big one as SKA Saint Petersburg ended up blowing their lead late in the game, but still managed to come away with the victory to remain undefeated on the season.
Through six games this season, the two-time Stanley Cup champion has two goals and six assists and is tied with Ilya Kovalchuk for the team lead in points with eight.
