Interesting to note is that Burke can opt to just not sign Jankowski. If it's really this move that got Weisbrod fired, why would he bother signing him at all?
Maybe we should consider his relationship with the Flames basically diminished to nothing at this stage?
Most likely Burke puts Jankowski on the back burner for his college career, lets him ripen, and then ships him for a pick after his senior year a la Knight.
Of course, that is if the Flames continue with this great new management style where Burkie is Pres. of Hockey Ops, GM, AGM, and head of scouting...
