The elbow from Scott Niedermayer on Pavel Datsyuk can bee seen around the 1:35 minute mark.

Datsyuk shrugged it off as just a part of hockey.
“I don’t want to talk about that,” Datsyuk said. “It’s not my priority.”
Said Niedermayer: “There was a lot going on, I don’t know how it all started. The next thing you know my gloves are off. That doesn’t happen too often. I didn’t even know who it was at first. I took a couple of punches to the face. I guess after a couple, I figured I’d try a couple.”
added 6:48am, from Ken Campbell of The Hockey News,
NHL disciplinarian Colin Campbell will have some video to watch after Scott Niedermayer elbowed Datsyuk in the final seconds of the game, which led to a fight between the two at the buzzer. But given the fact a precedent has been set allowing players to cold-cock unsuspecting opponents in the face in this year’s playoff tournament, don’t count on anything coming down.
