The Columbus Blue Jackets have made a bold move with their second first-round pick at the 2025 NHL Draft, selecting top goaltending prospect Pyotr Andreyanov 20th overall, addressing a critical long-term need in the crease.
Andreyanov, a Russian netminder from Krasnaya Armiya (MHL), is known for his elite athleticism, incredible puck tracking, and quick post-to-post movement. He posted a stellar .942 SV% and 1.75 GAA in 37 games this season, showcasing his dominance in Russia’s junior league. While not the largest goalie, his technical skill and competitiveness allow him to shut down opponents.

Ivanov, Gardner and Now Andreyanov!! May Be the #1 Goalie Prospect Pool In the League!! In their Defense He was the #1 Ranked International Goalie! I just don't get taking him in that spot with Hensler, Lakovic and Ravensbergen still on the board? If He's Your Guy Why Not Trade Down or grab one of those mentioned above and trade back up in the 2nd. Puzzling Moves Today including Shipping Brindley which I am quite angry about😡
The problem with cska Moscow for me is political influence and they and ska st Petersburg are especially hard to deal with and centers are the postion that are especially hard to predict with Russian players like Alexander khovanov was a player I thought had great nhl potential never played a game
Cbj said why they chose him. Listenpress conference. conferece.
