Red Wings' Andreas Athanasiou: Lands on scoresheet Sunday

Athanasiou picked up a secondary assist Sunday, contributing to a 5-2 road win over the Penguins.

Analysis:

Double A only skated for 13:04 in this one, so it's good to see him produce in limited action. His lone shot was a wicked wrister aimed high from the slot, but goalie Matt Murray ended up pulling it down for the save. Athanasiou remains a fine dynasty-keeper option since his role figures to grow substantially in the coming years. Furthermore, he's connected on close to 17 percent of his shot attempts since entering the league last season, and that should be raising some brows.
