"There are a couple game-time decisions for the Red Wings before Thursday night's contest against Phoenix.

Pavel Datsyuk (lower-body injury) took part in Thursday's morning skate.

"I feel OK," said Datsyuk, who added that he feels "better" after three days off the ice.

Datsyuk said a final decision would come down to what the trainers and coaches say.

"Eight hours, we'll make the decision," Datsyuk said."
