Henrik Zetterberg retrieves teammate Pavel Datsyuk's lost tooth
Here's a hockey story to chew on: Detroit center Pavel Datsyuk lost his tooth and his temper when he got slammed by Tampa Bay defenseman Victor Hedman during Game 2 of the Red Wings-Lightning playoff series Friday night.
Datsyuk retaliated with a hit back at Hedman, and then was ushered into the back, his knocked-out tooth all but lost on the ice.
Enter Red Wings captain Henrik Zetterberg, who helped join the search and actually found and retrieved his teammate's missing incisor. Because the tooth fairy doesn't come if there's no tooth:
Just Henrik Zetterberg picking up @Datsyuk13's lost tooth for him. What a captain.
