If it's a painful discussion to some, it really can't be helped. A draft pick will always be compared to other draft picks that could have been taken instead of him. Jankowski isn't a special case just because he's a long shot prospect.

Can we not create a thread titled "Draft Pick Could Have Beens" where we can discuss all of these very fun comparisons separately?
The reason why most of us want to use this thread is to exclusively discuss the progress/potential of Flames draft pick Mark Jankowski.
You could probably make an all-star team with all the players that the Flames could have drafted but didn't draft. I wish we could somehow keep these similar topics (1.draft choices 2.current prospects) separated.
