Andreas Athanasiou scores 2, Red Wings topple NHL-leading Bruins

Detroit — In terms of wins and losses, not a whole lot matters for the cellar-dwelling Detroit Red Wings right now.

Those details certainly do matter, and as it turns out, they're the exact details that Detroit needed to follow in order to pick up a 3-1 win over the league-leading Boston Bruins on Sunday afternoon at Little Caesars Arena.
