WATCH: Pavel Datsyuk makes Trevor Thompson look silly on the ice [Video]

FOX Sports Detroit reporter, Trevor Thompson created his own little segment on FSD broadcasts a while back. The segments are titled ‘Trev Takes On’ and usually get aired on an episode of Red Wings Live or on one of the weekly recap shows done up during the season. Trevor would spotlight around Pavel Datsyuk and would have a little stick handling session with him.

Having one of the best, if not, the best set of hands the NHL has ever seen, Pavel Datsyuk gave Trevor Thompson an up close and personal reason why.
