Boylen: Valtteri Filppula steps up on offense for Red Wings
“The next guy they have there who’s going to be like that is (Valtteri) Filppula. He’s getting there; he’s like a young Pav. I don’t think he has the same offensive flair, but he’s young and he’s learning from the right guy.” – NHL scout, 2009.
Valtteri Filppula, now in his sixth full NHL season, has long been regarded as a mini Pavel Datsyuk in the making. Though the young Finn didn’t have the high-end offensive chops possessed by his Russian teammate in the past, the comparison held due to his responsible two-way play.
But something has changed.

Filppula has very soft hands, not like Franzen yet, but getting there. He is starting to play the Thinking Man's Game on offense like Gretzky used to.
He goes to where the puck is going next, not where it is at the moment of attack.
