On the second pairing, with Hamilton? That’d put Jokipakka at 5th.
I’m actually happier with Jyrki, because I think he has less of a chance to be picked in an expansion draft. Olli would beg gone for sure.

He'd fit in nicely on any pairing. Jokipakka at fifth is not a bad thing. You do need quality on your third pairing.
Not sure how you could be happier with Jankowski when he hasn't even played a professional game in his life let alone an NHL game. Maatta has proved he could play in the NHL.
Which shouldn't be confused as Jankowski hate but no need to put down Maatta to make yourself feel better about Jankowski.
