Laurent Broissoit and Sven Baertschi were both interviewed this morning on the Fan960 morning show (approx. 8:15a.m.) and had a bit to say about Jankowski.

Of relevance to this thread, both players were asked who has impressed them the most at the prospect development camp. Baertschi replied that Johnny Gaudreau and Jankowski "were fun to watch", but he was roomates with Johnny Gaudreau so perhaps he was obliged to mention him, but interestingly mentioned Jankowski as well.

As for Broissoit, he said from a goalie's perspective it was Jankowski and Ty Wotherspoon as the most impressive. It was implied that he had a longtime friendship with Wotherspoon growing up as kids, so it seemed natural to for him to boost Wotherspoon. As for Jankowski, Broissoit stated that he's very skilled, and as a goalie it's hard to get a read on which direction Jankowski is going to move in. For instance, he said quite often Jankowski would shift in one direction and would deke the other way when Broissoit bit on the fakes. He implied that the skill was obvious, and took his observations to another level, when he went out of his way to state "you can see why Jankowski is GOING TO BE A FRANCHISE player". He could have left his assessment at the point that Jankowski was talented, but you could tell he wanted to be emphatic on his point with the franchise tag. I still haven't been out to observe Jankowski at camp, but that's now two different people, one from management (Feaster) and the other a goalie (Broissoit), that are claiming Jankowski will not only make it, but will be a FRANCHISE player. Also, regarding Broissoit's take on Jankowski, it sounded like he was genuinely enamoured by his skill level, nor did Andrew Walker try to elicit a response on Jankowski by leading his questioning.
