We have a shocking update on the Andreas Athanasiou  situation in Detroit.

As many of you will know the Detroit Red Wings have been in a difficult contract negotiation with Athanasiou and his representatives, and it seems that the player has finally had enough and will instead be looking at other options.

According to a breaking news update from TSN insider Bob McKenzie, the Red Wings center will be flying to Switzerland tonight where he will begin skating with HC Lugano.

McKenzie reports that Athanasiou has not yet signed with Lugano, presumably indicating that a last minute shift from general manager Ken Holland could still salvage this situation. However according to McKenzie Athanasiou will begin looking at his contract options once he begins skating with the team.
