Pyotr Andreyanov

September 2026 – Andreyanov endured what he described as a disappointing 2025-26 season but remains one of the more intriguing goaltending prospects in the Columbus system. The 2025 first-round pick went 13-8-3 with a 3.59 GAA and .919 save percentage in 26 MHL games with Krasanaya Armiya, while als posting 2-8-0 record, 2.13 GAA and .918 percentage in 13 VHL appearances with Zvzeda. The 19-year-old remains under contract with CSKA Moscow through 2029-30 and is expected to continue developing in Russia. Jayd Serdy

July 2025 – In a move that was a shock to some, Andreyanov was announced to have signed a five-year contract with CSKA Moskva of the KHL. The length of the contract, and the fact that it comes on the heels of the Blue Jackets drafting Andreyanov 20th overall just weeks ago will certainly put some stress into the Columbus faithful. He will be 23 years old at the culmination of the contract and rare is the goalie who meaningfully establishes himself in the NHL prior to that age. The news doesn’t diminish Andreyanov’s talent and skill, and fits a reasonable goalie development timeline. Fantasy managers and Blue Jackets’ fans will now need to hope that developing in a familiar region in a professional league brings out the best in the young netminder. – Alex Wyatt
