Bob Duff: Athanasiou Makes His Points With 18 games left in the season, Detroit Red Wings forward Andreas Athanasiou has already equaled his career high with 29 points.

AA will be the next Red Wing traded. He checks off all the boxes...

-under 30
-played hardball with Kenny as a RFA even holding out
-one of the few Red Wings players who doesn't have a no trade/no movement clause
-has actual value around the NHL
-is a RFA again with arb rights
-perfect scapegoat for Kenny/Blashill

I love AA, would love to see him on the Jets one day.
