Mention of Jankowski in this article from Bob McKenzie about a guy who's playing high school hockey in Ontario after being bypassed in the OHL draft and now likely get drafted in the NHL.

Quote:
Some scouts have wondered aloud whether Foegele may be this year's version of Mark Jankowski, the Calgary Flames' surprise first-round pick, 21st overall, in 2012 from Stanstead College in Quebec, who's now developing and playing well at Providence College.

A flash survey of NHL scouts puts Foegele in potential second or third-round territory for this year's draft. While some have projected him to go later than that, no more than a mid-round prospect, some of those who rank him as a possible second-rounder believe he has the tools to perhaps trend even higher.

Jankowski, part deux?

"He's a kid everyone is going in to look at now," one scout told TSN. "There's a lot of interest in him right now, so we'll see how does with a lot of scrutiny. There are always skeptics for players playing at that level but he's a legit NHL prospect."
Foegele, who trains in the off-season with Gary Roberts, is eligible for the OHL draft, again, this spring, though he seems intent on playing NCAA hockey at UNH.

In any case, it's a name that's getting some play from the scouts in a week when the top dogs will be on display in the CHL Top Prospects game.
