That being said, never said that you needed to see something in order to be an expert. But........if you've never seen it, there's a good chance you aren't an expert.

What makes you qualified to have an educated opinion on Mark Jankowski? Just curious.
I'm not.

Opinion is purely based through the filter of what other scouting reports have stated...plus the reality that the level of competition isn't high in canadian high schools. There's a reason why it is very rare for the NHL to draft canadian high schoolers.

with respect, I think i've stated an open mind on Jankowski now that he is a Flame. That said, i was hoping for Tuevo, purely based on the level of competition he's played at and that "his book" has more film.
