I like Hickey as well. Bit of a sleeper pick, but I think he could be a similar player to Brodie. He's in that mold, anyway.
Poirier & Klimchuk are really exciting to me, and factoring in their ETA, potential ceiling, pedigree & skill set I think they have to be top 5 prospects. I would not be shocked to see Poirier crack the line up in October.
Jankowski is a total wildcard. He's like that $5 bill you left in a pair of jeans which you haven't worn in 6 months. One day you reach into your pocket & it's like... well, I won't elaborate.

Found money? At least I think that's what you were getting at with Janko.
Poirier and Klimchuk would be top eight prospects IMO but I don't see how Poirier takes a spot away from Granlund or Sven (#6 BTW on my personal list). Don't get me wrong I think Poirier is a brilliant pick and a very promising prospect. But he'll have to have an epic camp to supplant one of the other guys.
Granlund and Sven have put in their time IMO and should get first crack at making the Flames line up. Will be fun to see how it all infolds.
