Andreas Athanasiou, at the very least, looks up to speed.
The Detroit Red Wings played their third game of the exhibition season Friday at Little Caesars Arena, hosting the New York Islanders. The Wings had a good mix of veterans and prospects, and were able to take good looks especially at a couple of their young defense prospects.
Athanasiou, who left last Sunday’s Red-White game because of soreness, showed off what makes him such a scoring threat when he raced to the net and scored for an early lead.
