DETROIT (WXYZ) -- The Red Wings have agreed to a one-year deal with forward Andreas Athanasiou.

According to a report from TSN's Bob McKenzie, the deal is worth $1.387 million.

 

 

Per McKenzie, Detroit would need to make one or more moves to be compliant under the NHL salary cap. McKenzie adds that Athanasiou is still in Europe, and wouldn't join the Red Wings until sometime next week.

During the 2016-17 season with Detroit, Athanasiou tallied 29 points (18 goals, 11 assists) in 64 games.
