Just found this interesting, not trying to compare anyones ability.

In hindsight I don't like the Jankowski pick from the perspective that he's a year or more behind either of these guys. If the Flames had gone with a safer pick they would have a still very good player who might be ready to play in the next year or so. I'm hopeful for Jankowski I'm just not sure he's what the flames needed timing wise
