All we can do now is hope Jankowski turns into the player Feaster and Weisbrod thought he could be.

Flames board didn't have these guys. Tired of constant Janko and Feaster bashing. We got the kid, he is young and still developing and is far from bust. Sieloff could still be a player as well.
What some people on the board were saying may have been the way to go, but everyone has an opinion and if thousand monkeys type for......
Majority of people that make recommendations most likely have never seen those kids play.
I like Sam Bennett in this draft but what do I know, a few highlight videos and bunch of reviews. If we pass on him and he becomes a star I could say I told you so. Odds are, I would be wrong on every other pick, but that one time I was right and bunch of pros were wrong.
