Default Waiting on Filatov....

I drafted him because of his potential and with the blue jackets new system, I thought he was a huge breakout candidate... 10 mins of ice time tonight is telling me I'm wrong. How long should I wait on this potential phenom?

My answers would lie...

The answer probably is you shoulda waited at the draft table...

But if you want a more appropriate answer, I'd drop him now if you have better alternatives available.

The problem is 1) Filatov hasn't shown signs that he's ready to dominate the NHL like how all of the poolies expect him to. 2) He's not getting the top-six ice-time that he needs. 3) The Jackets depth was just as I predicted in Summer. They're leaning more towards the vets like Umberger, Vermette, Nash and Huse over the young kids like Voracek, Brassard and Filatov...

In a one year league, have a look at your options on the wire.

I probably wouldn't carry him in a one-year. He's a keeper sensation.
