I still maintain hope that Mark Jankowski will follow the path of Blake Wheeler, who in my opinion is his direct comparable in terms of size, skillset, and developmental curve. Wheeler never managed to hit anywhere near a PPG pace in his three collegiate seasons, and yet has still managed to carve out at a career as a productive top six NHL player, and Olympic participant.
Some players take more time and attention than others. I am not completely sold on the notion that Mark will have the same success, but it is still far to early to be making any sort of conclusions about his future in the organization.
