I hope that the Flames can handle Jankowski's development a lot better than the grease handled Lander's. Lander put up 20 points in 38 games in his draft+6 in the NHL, he shouldn't have stagnated like he did.

I always found it odd too. I guess it would be easier for scouts though if there was a direct translation. Sometimes NHLe is a good equation, but not always.
Just like some guys are only 15-20 goal and 40 point players in the NHL, but then can play in the NHL and get the same production. One would think if they can do that in the NHL, they would be even better in the AHL (or KHL for that matter).
