The Detroit Red Wings and forward Andreas Athanasiou agreed to a two-year contract worth $6 million on Thursday, according to MLive.com's Ansar Khan.

The 23-year-old is coming off his third season with the Red Wings, during which he put up a career-best 33 points in 71 games.

Athanasiou missed the first 10 games of the season and elected to skate in Switzerland after he and the Red Wings failed to come to terms on a new contract to begin the year. Ultimately, the two sides agreed to a one-year, $1.3875-million contract on Oct. 20.

In 172 career games, Athanasiou has tallied 43 goals and 76 points while averaging 13:16 of ice time.
