he was unhappy about his playing time

the issue I believe has to do with Hitch wanting players who play both sides

which Filatov is only good offensively

he's also a bit undersized which hurts because he can't be as physical

yea I read more into it I get all that but I initially thought they cut him now that I know he's on loan I understand

I personally rather they keep him and trade him for a defensive player

yea a big nasty one
