Troubles Ahead For The Jackets And Filatov

Now that the NHL has officially approved of the Blue Jackets' entry level contract of 1st round pick Nikita Filatov, trouble could be coming very shortly. Firstly, Filatov still has to get his Visa approved. Also, his Russian club team (CSKA Moscow)now wants $500,000 dollars a year for 3 years (the length of Filatov's entry level contract). Knowing what has happened with the whole Radulov mess, this is going to be a rough ride for the Columbus Blue Jackets, their management and of course the player going through all of this, Nikita Filatov.
