Not trying to pick on you, but you are comparing apples and oranges here.
When you happened to look up Colborne's and Jankowksi's stats, did you happen to look at each players team scoring?
Colborne Freshman
Jankowski Freshman
Colborne Sophomore
Jankowski Sophomore
Colborne played on much higher scoring teams, so it really is hard to compare their offensive outputs against one another knowing that.
Not to mention, Jankowski was 17 years +8 months old when drafted, while Colborne was 18 years +6 months old when drafted, so Janko basically started college a year sooner than Colborne.....and as if all that wasn't enough, Mark went directly from a lower tier high school hockey league straight to college, where as Joe had two full years of Junior A under his belt before making the jump.
Don't be sad about Jankowski's stat line, just sit back and wait to see what happens. Long ways to go yet before we have any concrete answers.
