Blackhawks' Andreas Athanasiou: Suffers injury in minors
Athanasiou, who was sent down to AHL Rockford in mid-November, sustained a hand or wrist injury against AHL Chicago on Sunday, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Athanasiou's stint in the minors was supposed to help him rediscover his game after being held without a point through his first five appearances this season. While the veteran winger did manage to score a pair of goals for the IceHogs, his injury will no doubt be a setback for his chances of earning back a spot in the Blackhawks' lineup.

Blackhawks' Andreas Athanasiou: Going on waivers
Athanasiou will be placed on waivers Monday, Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio reports.
Athanasiou has been a healthy scratch for nine straight games. He hasn't earned a point in five appearances while contributing six shots on goal, four blocked shots and five hits this season. Athanasiou's $4.25 million cap hit for 2024-25 will likely scare away teams from claiming him, meaning he could be ticketed for AHL Rockford if he clears waivers.

Blackhawks' Andreas Athanasiou: Falling out of favor
Athanasiou was scratched for the fourth game in a row for Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Sharks.
Athanasiou has sat out six of the Blackhawks' first 11 games, and he hasn't earned a point while averaging 9:36 of ice time over his first five outings. The 30-year-old forward has added six shots on net, five hits, four blocked shots and a minus-1 rating. The recent success of players like Lukas Reichel and Ryan Donato likely means Athanasiou will have to wait his turn for another look in the lineup. Even when he draws back in, he's unlikely to be productive in a fourth-line role.

Blackhawks' Andreas Athanasiou: Finally lights lamp Saturday
Athanasiou scored his first goal of the season in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Stars.
The 29-year-old center has been limited to 22 games this season due to a groin injury he suffered in November, and it took him until Chicago's 76th contest to finally find the back of the net. Athanasiou has only four points in 11 games since returning to the lineup as he skates on the third line at even strength and sees shifts on the second power-play unit -- roles that keep him away from Connor Bedard, and far from significant fantasy value.

Blackhawks' Andreas Athanasiou: Still not skating
Athanasiou (groin) has yet to resume skating but is expected back on the ice soon, Charlie Roumeliotis of NBC Sports Chicago reports Wednesday.
Athanasiou has already been out of action for the Blackhawk's last 12 contests and looks unlikely to be ready for game action soon.

Given his slump and injury concerns, Athanasiou seems unlikely to reach the 20-goal threshold in 2023-24 after hitting that mark last year.

Blackhawks' Andreas Athanasiou: Considered week-to-week

Blackhawks' Andreas Athanasiou: Inks two-year deal
Athanasiou signed a two-year, $8.5 million contract with the Blackhawks on Wednesday, per PuckPedia.
Athanasiou was able to turn his second-best season into a two-year deal after logging 20 goals and 20 helpers in 81 contests in 2022-23. The 28-year-old forward was often playing in a top-six role for Chicago, especially later in the season after trades decimated the team's forward depth. He's a natural center but may fit better on the wing, and the potential that he could end up playing with Connor Bedard makes Athanasiou slightly more interesting for fantasy managers.
