Anyways here's what I wrote about Janko a while back:

As a draft nut - I read a ton of different previews, mocks and what not heading into each year. Button was far from the only guy that had Jankowski in the first round.

A couple of examples
Red Line Report had him going 15 in their final mock
Hockey Prospect had him just outside the first at 36
McKeens had him at 37
SB Nation had him at 28
Bleacherreport had him listed in an article about the "7 prospects you should know bfore the draft" saying

"All things considered, Jankowski is the ultimate boom or bust pick. He could be selected anywhere from late in the top 10 to the middle of the second round, but if given the opportunity and time to develop properly, Jankowski could make the GM that selects him look like a genius. "

He had some buzz around him before the draft - enough that he was included in discussion on this site as well.
