It's one thing to be in this spot with a 4th round pick you hoped would maybe turn into something special, but it's another to have to go through this cause you went off the board in the first round knowing it would take time to develop and knowing if it did (or at least should have know) this could be the outcome.
Regardless what happens, the fact that Janko has some decisions to make right now is why it was a dumb dumb pick in that slot in the first place.

So let me get this straight. If Jankowski doesn't sign with the Flames that is on Feaster? The fact that Jankowski was was the best prospect in dev camp, not named Bennett, and was prepared to sign last year, but Treliving thought it best for him to cook another year in year in college, that is on Feaster? The fact that Treliving went in with, what is rumored to be a contract starting next season and PTO contract for the AHL instead of a standard offer that would allow Jankowski to play a couple NHL games and earn a nice little bonus, that is on Feaster? So, in a nutshell, Treliving's mismanagement of the contract surrounding one of the Flames top prospects now falls on Feaster?
