There are two huge battles going on right now between restricted free agents and their respective National Hockey League franchises, but one of them may finally be over. 

According to a breaking news report from Sportsnet insider Elliotte Friedman, he is hearing that Columbus Blue Jackets RFA Josh Anderson has finally agreed to the three-year-deal worth an average annual valuer of $1.85 million that the Blue Jackets have offered him.

Anderson was reportedly seeking a one-year-deal with a much lower annual value, presumably in the hopes of earning a large contract at the end of this season, and had steadfastly refused to sign the three-year deal offered by Columbus. 

However with the regular season drawing near the Blue Jackets stood firm and called Anderson's bluff, and it appears that the Blue Jackets have won this particular game of chicken.
