Adam Fantilli’s contract standoff with the Columbus Blue Jackets is heating up as August nears, with the team holding over $13 million in cap space — enough to tempt rivals with a $14M offer sheet. But with the season looming, it’s unlikely Fantilli wants to force a showdown. His agent is negotiating, and he’s clearly seeking a hefty payday after two stellar seasons. The Jackets see him as their cornerstone center and are determined to keep him — even if it means compromising on salary. Expect a deal within weeks, likely below their full cap room, avoiding an offer sheet scenario that seems more theoretical than real.
