Funny, never even knew Dubuque existed until we drafted Gaudreau last year, and now there's Girgensons and Matheson going n round 1 this year.

Gaudreau put up 1.20 points per game as a 17 year old with Dubuque....and Girgensons put up 1.12 points pergame as a 17/18 year old with Dubuque.

Jankowski will play there as an 18 year old, will be nice to see how he stacks up.
definitely would be an reasonably fair comparison to other know quantities... esp Gaudreau...

Again, I am not a fan of the pick, as it seemed like Tuevo was there for the taking. That said, now that he's a Flame, people will have to show some patience with him. Seeing how he does in Dubuque and then Providence will definitely provide more data against more evenly matched competition.
