I'm really pleased to see Janko's offense finally catching up to the rest of his development. I have only seen him play a handful of times, but he always looks to be in the right spot, has excellent and smooth skating which is a HUGE asset in the NHL, is big enough that he won't get run over (don't mistake him for a physical player).

His development early on was clearly focused on systems play and defensive acumen, since those are underdeveloped in the league he was drafted from. He's such a late bloomer that he needed to catch up on some fundamentals that most kids his age had already been taught. Now that he has that part of his game down he can focus on exploring his offensive talents, which were always there. He's got a better than average shot, but his true talent comes from his vision and passing skills. He's not Gaudreau, but he's a solid player when it comes to creating offense.

Now all we need to do is let him marinate in the minors until he's ready for a full time gig.
