If this is it for Pavel Datsyuk, the NHL will be losing one of the most electrifying players to ever play in the league.
The 37-year-old forward needs some time to decide on his future after the Detroit Red Wings' elimination Thursday night, but the two-time Stanley Cup champion, three-time Selke Trophy winner, and four-time Lady Byng recipient has little left to prove.
The "Magic Man" will be remembered most for his incredible hands and uncanny ability to find the back of the net, even when it seemed impossible.
This list could easily be a dozen deep, but here are three of his most unforgettable moments:
The Datsyukian deke on Turco
He loved using his patented deke in the shootout, but it was even more impressive when he busted it out during a game and made Dallas Stars goaltender Marty Turco look silly.
The change-up
Nothing illustrates Datsyuk's creativity better than the shootout goal he scored on Antti Niemi in 2010.
It's as if time stands still as Datsyuk waits out the Chicago Blackhawks netminder and softly flicks the puck over him at the last possible moment.
No one can stop him
We've all seen goals scored on end-to-end rushes, but rarely do they involve eluding every single opposing player on the ice, and that's exactly what Datsyuk does here.
His skating, stickhandling, and strength are all on display as he weaves through the Nashville Predators for an astounding goal on a truly jaw-dropping individual effort.
