Datsyuk (lower body) is expected to return to the lineup Thursday against the Bruins, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports. Datsyuk didn't skate Wednesday morning a day after being scratched against the Senators with the lower-body injury, but the Red Wings don't seem to believe he suffered a setback upon his return to the lineup over the previous weekend. The team could just be playing it safe with the center with the playoffs approaching, so if he's able to complete Thursday's morning skate without incident, he'll likely draw back into the lineup.
