Well you can still say that he's better at the moment. All you have to do is read the preseason reports from Chicago and compare them to what people saw from Jankowski to see that TT is a better player right now. The preseason prospect games are the only time they've played at the same level and Teuvo dominated. In the two years he's been there, Teuvo has 26 points in 13 games at the U20 tournament.
Tiresome, sure, but also inevitable when pick a guy who is so far away that he can't even be compared to his age group until years later. Now we see that Calgary had lots of good options and it's human nature to get impatient.
