Pavel Datsyuk - W - Detroit Red Wings
Dec. 20, 2010 - 2:20 PM ET

Pavel Datsyuk and Tomas Holmstrom had a new linemate in Sunday's 4-3 overtime loss to Dallas.

The pair skated with Johan Franzen in the contest, while Henrik Zetterberg was moved to play with Todd Bertuzzi and Daniel Cleary. Valterri Filppula centered the third unit between Justin Abdelkader and Patrick Eaves. The Red Wings had been looking for more production from their second line of Franzen, Filppula and Bertuzzi of late, but coach Mike Babcock decided to blow up the configuration instead.
