That was today, I believe. I'd say that plays a significant part in Pavel returning. What about Pavel’s arbitration hearing in Russia? That was today, I believe.

Even then I'll be half expecting him to run off to Russia mid-season if they offer him a pony. Nope, I won't believe he's really back until he tries and fails to pick up any post-season points. Then, and only then, will I know that we got our man. Jerk. (I'm actually pretty happy about this, but I haven't had my coffee yet this morning.) I’ll believe it when I see him in a Detroit sweater.
