Shedden was okay I thought. He was hired as an interim guy between two Finnish coaches if I recall correctly.

As for Jankowski, let's wait until they're playing in the NHL. Would be nice to have a Flames prospect be the captain and MVP of the junior championship team but in the end we might still like the big center.
