Backlund is a good example of patience. Didn't come into his own until 24. Doesn't matter if he played two years after being drafted. I hope you're not being grating on purpose. You're a little over top when it comes to Jankowski, I'm not the only one who sees it.
I'm over the top? I rarely mention Jankowski even when he's been brought up by others, but if I do even jokingly, I'm sure to see you come running to his defence. You're becoming obsessive.

This time Bingo brought him up with a quote wondering if he'd be signed after his college career was over. Nothing written in stone, but I think at this time, it's a valid future possibility.
