Help is on the way.

Pavel Datsyuk said he will return to the Detroit Red Wings lineup for Saturday's pivotal clash with the Minnesota Wild, according to MLive's Ansar Khan.

The veteran has been sidelined for two games with a recurring lower-body injury that flared up last week. 

He ranks second on the team in scoring and sixth in terms of per-game points league-wide.
