I don't know if he would do it, but you couldn't blame a guy for thinking it.
True. But you gotta think at this point... Who is in this guy's ear that would convince him to go someplace else? It's possible that he has a childhood fantasy of playing for the Montreal or another team promises him minutes, who knows? But considering this guy's dad is employed by hockey Canada to help run the National Jr. Program, I am making the leap of faith that he values the concept of making a team through worth and having loyalty to those who supported you. His dad would have also worked with Brad Pasqual in some capacity. Burke and Conroy are also well-respected in the college scene, with the added bonus of Burke being a Providence alum. we have 3 Providence players/alum in our system, one of whom is seemingly a good friend. Everything to me points towards Janko staying a Flame.
