His upside is huge. Excellent skill, size and skating combo. I'd pretty be hesitant to deal him at this point, he's having a tremendous year. For Nichushkin I'd certainly consider it because Nichushkin's upside is also huge. In general I think fans underrate Jankowski's upside and value at this point.

Fair enough. I just see him slotting behind Monahan and Bennett as a 2-way center. I don't think he will be a big scorer in the NHL but I think he will have a decent career of sorts. Not sure what his ceiling truly is but I don't see how he ever rises above Monahan and Bennett here. Unless Bennett stays on the wing but I think that would be a mistake because he has 1st line potential. I think Sammy will be our #1 center as soon as next year.
