Where did I say that he "sucked because he played on the third line" ?? You're just trying to win yourself an argument that isn't even there.
Face it; Datsyuk is GOOD, but not great. He's still got a long way to go. The Wings have a very good team with guys like Hull, Shanahan, Whitney, Yzerman, etc.
Besides, Datsyuk is leading the league in goals, thus being the man, right? Well Kris Draper already has 13 goals this season: his career record is 15. Everyone on Detroit is doing well right now.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying Datsyuk sucks or anything like that, but he's hardly the guy you should be building a franchise around.
As for Crosby... well, good luck building a team whose franchise player is still 2 years away from playing... lol. Besides, even if he is the greatest player ever, not every player lives up to their potential. A lot of players can rip it up in the juniors only to have mediocore NHL careers. It's a huge risk to build a franchise around a player who's not even stepped foot in an NHL game yet
