When the 2015-2016 season started, there weren't incredibly high expectations for Andreas Athanasiou. He was coming off of a solid, but not spectacular 16-goal, 32-point season in the AHL and wasn't expected to see playing time with the Detroit Red Wings this year. Fast forward to today and Athanasiou has played his way ahead of Teemu Pulkkinen and Tomas Jurco on the depth chart and has become a fixture in the Red Wings' lineup. Athanasiou's speed and offensive creativity has been a breath of fresh air for the Red Wings' stagnant offense.
