Its a development camp in July. Take it for what it is.

I've always been a big proponent of taking development camps with a big grain of salt, I've been going to these since Mike Commodore and JF Damphouse skated at SAIT looking sad that they're former teams were in the Cup Finals (Ducks and Devils) and here they were in Calgary. But I'm also not a fan of wet blankets. Let people get excited if they want, no one is pencilling Jankowski into the starting line up either however.
A strong camp seems to has either A)reinforced peoples thoughts that he could have easily turned pro for the upcoming season or B) Shown people that couldn't see Friars what a long way he's come since being drafted.
No one was pencilling him into the Calgary Flames roster this fall based on this camp. Haven't seen that once in this thread.
