Pavel Datsyuk: Sits out of semifinal

Datsyuk (undisclosed) will not play in Saturday's semifinal game against Team Canada, Arpon Basu of LNH.com reports.

If Team Russia manages to move onto the finals, Datsyuk will garner a few more days to rest since the first game of the best-of-three series won't begin until Tuesday. The severity of his injury still remains unknown, so there's no guarantee he'll be available if Team Russia does indeed advance.
