Blackhawks share uneasy update on top-line forward
In Chicago, Mario Tirabassi from CHGO Blackhawks brings an update on forward Andreas Athanasiou.
While Athanasiou has been practicing fully lately, the team has made it clear that there is no set date for his comeback.
Last season, he signed a two-year, $8.5 million extension, but injuries have limited him to just 11 games this year.
He got sidelined with a lower-body injury in November. With one more year left on his contract, there's hope he can bounce back and regain his form.
