Which is it, is his upside that of an NHL regular? Or is it not? If you've seen him play and feel his upside isn't even NHL calibre, then WHY would you NOT be surprised if he makes it to the NHL?
A lot of your original post criticised where he played, not the player itself. So excuse me for questioning you, but let's not pretend you were giving much in the way of insight. As someone who has been here for 6 months, I encourage you to focus on the player, not where he played or where he was scouted from or what some of his peers said about him.
Hell, if I was to say "Monahan is not going to become anything more than. 3rd liner, I've seen him play more than 30 games." I would expect to be jumped on. Janko is nowhere near the same prospect, but when you say "Janko can't make the NHL, I've seen him play 30 times" I'm going to question your credibility.

Just my opinion, but based on several viewings , Jankowski has a 35/ 65 projected chance of being a top 9 forward.
He has good hands, decent stride, but very soft. Once or twice a game you notice his skillset. The rest of the time he is pretty invisible.
Time will tell.
