Pavel Datsyuk



Why He's A Mancrush

We hate to admit it, but there is no one else quite like Pavel Datsyuk. He destroyed the Penguins defense in the 2008 Stanley Cup Finals. His hands are magic and his brain is even more fantastical.

He's physical for such a small player. He's got hands like silky smooth buttah. He's got moves like The Ladies Man. Players want to be him as he slips between them and scores a beautiful goal.

But for as amazing as Datsyuk is, we just can't get past that face. It's a face only Henrik Zetterberg could love. We know that we're shallow but it's the truth, he's not attractive.

But he's really good. The quintessential Mancrush to end all Mancrushes.
