What's not to like about him?

He was #2/3 on the team that won the NCAA championship and exceeded expectations for everyone by having a great year end tournament.
This year he is the #1C on the 5th ranked Providence team. He is scoring a a better than a ppg in his 4th year of the NCAA....
He has a chance to make it to the NHL after his 4 year in the NCAA... Kevin Hayes did it.... but for every Kevin Hayes that plays well in his 4th year NCAA and steps into the NHL there are 20 Arnolds, Hankoski, Van Brabrant, Corbin Knights. Even a NHL long shot like Jooris was only in the NCAA for 3 years.
A common "hope he works out like" comparison to Jankowski was late developer low scoring in NCAA 21st overall draft pick 2010 Riley Sheahan. He left Notre Dame after 3 years and is a 15 pts in 61 games -14 player on the wings
