Did management reach by trading down and drafting Jankowski? Hell yes! It doesn't make him a bad prospect but it does give us fans a certain level of expectation from him (realistically or unrealistically)
I agree that if Seiloff was progressing at a higher rate then the merits of the trade down wouldn't be argued as fiercely.
I'll temper my expectations and look for him to be the next David Steckell, as per Burkie. If that's what becomes of Janks I guess that wouldn't be the worst first round pick the Flames have ever made.
